VALV = VALVular function = evaluation of a murmur with suspicion of valvular disease, yearly follow-up of valvular disease, valvular disease with change in clinical status, prosthetic valves, infective endocarditis. AORT = AORTic disease = Marfans disease, evaluation of proximal aortic root. HD = Heart Disease = evaluation of hypertensive heart disease, initial and routine evaluation of CHF and HCM, evaluation of suspected cardiomyopathy, screening for inherited cardiomyopathy, baseline and serial evaluation for therapy with cardiotoxic agents. IE = Suspected Infective Endocarditis or its complication, persistent fever with intracardiac device with suspicion of infective endocarditis, GUIDE = To GUIDE during cardiac intervention. CVERS = Prior to CardioVERSion in atrial fibrillation/flutter and/or follow-up after anticoagulation. REPAIR = Suitability of valve REPAIR. AC-AORT = Further investigation of ACute AORTic pathology. PHTN = Pulmonary HyperTensioN. DYSP = DYSPnea suspected due to cardiac etiology. RISK = RISK stratification in coronary artery disease. |
