For over a quarter of a century, echocardiography has made an
unparalleled contribution to clinical cardiology as a major tool
for real-time imaging of cardiac dynamics. Echocardiography is
widely used to assess cardiac function, and provides noninvasive
information which is invaluable for the diagnosis of various
disease states. In spite of its numerous advantages, in the
clinical arena echocardiography has remained mostly qualitative and
subjective. However, continued progress in our understanding of the
interactions between ultrasound and tissue characteristics have
brought about several new developments which allow quantitative
analysis of ultrasound data. Among these new developments are
endocardial boundary detection (frequently referred to as Acoustic
Quantification), Color Kinesis and Doppler myocardial imaging. The
purpose of this book is to provide the reader with the background
necessary to understand and successfully utilize these
methodologies. Chapters summarize in detail the studies that have
validated these techniques thus far, and discuss their future
applications.
