The left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction (EF) is the preferred parameter applied for the non-invasive evaluation of LV systolic function in clinical practice. It has a well-recognized and extensive role in the clinical management of numerous cardiac conditions. Many imaging modalities are currently available for the non-invasive assessment of LVEF. The aim of this review is to describe their relative advantages and disadvantages, proposing a hierarchical application of the different imaging tests available for LVEF evaluation based on the level of accuracy/reproducibility clinically required.
左心室射血分数(LV EF)是临床实践中用于左心室收缩功能无创评估的首选参数。它在众多心脏疾病的临床管理中具有公认且广泛的作用。目前有多种成像方式可用于左心室射血分数的无创评估。本综述的目的是描述它们的相对优缺点,根据临床所需的准确性/可重复性水平,对可用于评估左心室射血分数的不同成像检查提出分级应用建议。
