Purpose : This study was designed to define normal values for a nongeometric MPI in children and evaluate the utility of mycoMPI in congenital heart disease with distorted ventricular geometry.
Methods : The study population consisted of 44 normal patients and 28 patients with atrial septal defect(ASD) with dilated right ventricle and paradoxical septal motion. Right ventricular(RV) and left... |

Purpose : We performed the study to evaluate the risk factors associated with cardiac complication and the outcome of coronary lesions after high-dose(2g/kg, 1dose) gammaglobulin(IVIG) treatment in patients with Kawasaki disease(KD).
Methods : Retrospective studies were performed on 338 cases of KD treated with high-dose IVIG at this hospital from May 1994 to March 1999.
Results : Among 338 patients,... |
