[Value of nuclear medicine procedures in evaluating the hemodynamics in physical medicine and cardiac rehabilitation].

Abstract

This is a report on the application and importance of nuclear-medical procedures in physical therapy and rehabilitation. In particular, attention is focused on the parameters of peripheric haemodynamics (T1/2 and -A) and of the left ventricular ejection fraction. The authors aim at demonstrating their own results gained during the last 10 years in different groups of patients suffering from cardiovascular diseases at rest and under load. The results are critically estimated, including the relevant literature, and conclusions are drawn for clinical practice.
