The different signs of left atrial enlargement on the conventional biplane chest roentgenogram and the methods of measurement are discussed and evaluated in 85 patients with mitral valve disease. The posterior displacement of the barium-filled esophagus is the most sensitive qualitative sign for left atrial enlargement. The sagittal left atrial diameter recording to Westcott and coll. can be easily measured and reproduced. It is recommended for quantitative studies of left atrial size.
对85例二尖瓣疾病患者常规双平面胸部X线片上左心房增大的不同征象及测量方法进行了讨论和评估。钡剂充盈食管的后移是左心房增大最敏感的定性征象。记录到Westcott等人的矢状位左心房直径易于测量且可重复。推荐用于左心房大小的定量研究。
