Cardiac ventriculography

Cardiac ventriculography is a medical imaging test used to determine a person's heart function in the right, or left ventricle. Cardiac ventriculography involves injecting contrast media into the heart's ventricle(s) to measure the volume of blood pumped. Cardiac ventriculography can be performed with a radionuclide in radionuclide ventriculography or with an iodine-based contrast in cardiac chamber catheterization.
