Definition: Radionuclide ventriculography where a bolus of radionuclide is injected and data are recorded from one pass through the heart ventricle. Left and right ventricular function can be analyzed independently during this technique. First-pass ventriculography is preferred over GATED BLOOD-POOL IMAGING for assessing right ventricular function.
"ventriculo-" refers to the heart, not the cerebral ventricles; used for the right or left ventricle but is preferred for right: for the left ventricle GATED BLOOD-POOL IMAGING is preferred; /drug eff /rad eff permitted; do not use /util except by MeSH d
