52 year old female with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation and premature ventricular contractions here for cardiac evaluation. Left VentricleThe left ventricle is normal in size with normal systolic function. The overall LV ejection fraction is 56%, the LV end diastolic volume index is 97 ml/m2 (normal range: 65+/-11), the LVEDV is 159 ml (normal range 109+/-23), the LV end systolic volume index is 42 ml/m2 (normal range 18+/-5), the LVESV is 69 ml (normal range 31+/-10). There are no regional wall motion abnormalities present. There is no late gadolinium enhancement to suggest the presence of an underlying fibrosing, infiltrative, or inflammatory process. Native T1 times are normal.Left AtriumThe left atrium is normal in size. Right VentricleThe right ventricle is normal in size with normal systolic function. The overall RV ejection fraction is 50%, the RV end diastolic volume index is 100 ml/m2 (normal range 69+/-14), the RVEDV is 165 ml (normal range 110+/-24), the RV end systolic volume index is 50 ml/m2 (normal range 22+/-8), and the RVESV is 82 ml (normal range 35+/-13). Right AtriumThe right atrium is normal in size. Aortic ValveThe aortic valve opens widely and there is no significant aortic regurgitation.Mitral ValveThe mitral valve opens widely and there is no significant mitral regurgitation.Pulmonic ValveThe pulmonic valve opens widely. There is no significant pulmonic regurgitation.Tricuspid ValveThe tricuspid valve opens widely. There is no significant tricuspid regurgitation.AortaThere is a left sided aortic arch with a normal brachiocephalic branching pattern. The aortic root is normal in size.Pulmonary VeinsAll four pulmonary veins drain normally into the left atrium.RU 17x14 mmLU 12x16 mmRL 15x16 mmLL (small vessel) 11x13 mmPulmonary ArteryThe main pulmonary artery is normal in size. Venous AnatomyThe SVC and IVC drain normally into the right atrium. PericardiumThere is no obvious pericardial disease.Extracardiac FindingsThis study is not designed for the specific evaluation of extra-cardiac findings; therefore, the differentiation between artifacts and real extracardiac pathology may be difficult. If clinically indicated, a separate dedicated evaluation should be considered.
1. Normal biventricular size and systolic function.2. There is no late gadolinium enhancement to suggest the presence of an underlying fibrosing, infiltrative, or inflammatory process.I personally reviewed the Images and/or procedure with the Resident/Fellow and agree with this report.
