adenosine stress myocardial perfusion

Subject: adenosine stress myocardial perfusion

The doctor states, "medium area of moderate to severe infarction with very mild residual ischemia in the anteroapical wall."  I cannot tell if he is saying medium area or medial area- which would make more sense?

Adenosine Cardiolite
Subject: Adenosine Cardiolite

Does anyone know where I can get in depth info about this? I have a cardiologist that it very hard to understand and since I'm not that specialized in cardiology myself, I am having to leave a lot of blanks because I don't know if like LVS of 53%, etc is correct because I can't tell if she is saying LVES or LVS and cannot find either! This is just one example! TIA
Adenosine Cardiolite
Subject: Adenosine Cardiolite

I hope this information helps...

LVES---> left ventricular end-systolic

LVS---> left ventricular strain

(both according to Stedman's Cardiology and Pulmonary words)

I also found this website for some information on cardiac procedures that might help you.

Good luck!!!!
