 The current imaging modalities used for non-invasive imaging of the heart include echocardiography and radionuclide ventriculography. Echocardiographic evaluation of cardiac function is primarily limited to the left ventricle and functional measurements are based on volumetric estimates in turn based usually on geometric assumptions. That is, the volume calculation is based on a limited number of non orthogonal linear measurements assuming a regular non complex chamber morphology. This study technique provides no biologic hazard to the patient.
