Ji-Yon Lee, Jo-Won Jung
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2000;43(9):1192-1299.   Published online September 15, 2000
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...
