The LV angiogram is performed frequently as part of the cardiac catheterization procedure. It is done by injecting a bolus of x-ray contrast into the ventricle through a pigtail catheter over a short period of time and observing the heart as it is pumped out. This provides information on regional wall motion abnormalities, ejection fraction, and mitral regurgitation. A common occurrence when performing a LV angio is frequent PVC’s or V-tach during the injection, it has been suggested that ectopic's occurs about 54% of the time and that interpretability was limited 30% of the time(3) This is rarely serious and subsides at the end of the injection but the irregularity of the contractions does affect the diagnostic quality of the exam.
