Figure 1 An example of left ventricular (LV) pressure-volume relationship recording from an invasive conductance catheter (left) and LV outflow tract pulsed-wave Doppler recording from the apical view. Left ventricular outflow tract acceleration was calculated as peak velocity ÷ time to peak velocity (right).
