Quantification
Quantitative Ventricular Analysis (LVA)
Important notes
The left ventricular analysis software (LVA) was developed for analyses of the left
ventricle of the heart in a 30° RAO projection (in plane A) or for biplane analyses
in a 60° LAO projection in plane B.
The cardiac phases which are of most interest are the end diastole (= ED) and
end systole (= ES) phases. If you use these phases, you can calculate several val-
ues, e.g. ejection fraction (EF).
All evaluation parameters depend on correct inputs. Changing the angulation
changes the dimensions of the ventricle, which leads to incorrect results. The
greater the deviation from 30° RAO or 60° LAO, the less reliable the results.
Starting analysis
Selecting a scene
u Load a suitable scene from the Patient Browser onto the Quant task card by
drag-and-drop or a double click.
Part Image Viewing and Image Processing, Chapter General, “Loading a
scene/image”
The formulas for volume correction (regression formulas) are based on the left
ventricle form in the 30° RAO projection (in plane A) or 60° LAO projection in
plane B
If the projection deviates from this projection, the results may be less reliable!
u Please ensure correct 30° RAO projection (in plane A) or 60° LAO projection
in plane B
The permitted deviation from this projection is configurable.
