Comparison of Doppler echocardiography with angiography for determining the severity of pulmonary regurgitation

In this study, we compared Doppler echocardiographic indexes of the severity of pulmonary regurgitation (PR) with angiographic grade of PR. The ratio of the PR color jet to the pulmonary valve annulus significantly coprrelated with angiographic grade (r = 0.95, p ==2+ in severity from angiographic P...
