Italian term
GLSV sx
Italian to English
Medical
Medical: Cardiology
This term comes from the results of a transthoracic echocardiogram on a patient with heart disease.
Here's the context: "...severa disfunzione sistolica ventricolare sinistra FE VSx 14%, GLSV sx -6%, riempimento monofasico, ventricolo destro non dilatato..."
Later in the report it is written as GLSVSn.
Any thoughts on what this stands for?
Thank you!
