Impact of Image Spatial, Temporal, and Velocity Resolutions on Cardiovascular Indices Derived from Color-Doppler Echocardiography

Quantitative processing of color-Doppler echocardiographic images has substantially improved noninvasive assessment of cardiac physiology. Many indices are computed from the velocity fields derived either from color-Doppler tissue imaging (DTI), such as acceleration, strain and strain-rate, or from...

Many indices are computed from the velocity fields derived either from color-Doppler tissue imaging (DTI), such as acceleration, strain and strain-rate, or from blood-flow color-Doppler, such as intracardiac pressure gradients (ICPG).

A simple first-order Taylor's expansion was used to establish the functional relationship between the acquired image velocity and the calculated cardiac index.

Velocity and temporal resolution were highly relevant for the accuracy of DTI-derived parameters and ICPGs. TBEB allow to assess the effects of ideal digital image resolution on quantitative cardiovascular indices derived from velocity measurements obtained by cardiac imaging techniques.Teoría de la Señal y Comunicaciones200920092009info:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10115/2488reponame:BURJC-Digital.
