Abstract

With the widespread availability of two-dimensional (2-D) echocardiography and, more recently, of Doppler echocardiography, ultrasonic methods for the evaluation of ischemic heart disease have greatly improved. Whereas time-motion (“M-Mode”) echocardiography allowed only an ice pick view of a small (and possibly nonrepresentative) portion of the heart, 2-D echo allows a much broader field of view, as well as the potential to obtain views in various planes at multiple tomographic levels. In addition, significant improvements in image quality now allow excellent definition of ventricular wall motion, wall thickening, and chamber size in most patients (1).
