GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)
French term or phrase:coeur V0
English translation:heart, oblique view
Entered by: Sarah Walls

French to English translations [PRO]
Medical - Medical: Cardiology / chest X-ray
French term or phrase: coeur V0
In a report on a chest X-ray: "Coeur V0 [ or it could be VO], silhouette cardiaque normale, pas de foyer" etc. I thought of ventricule-oreillette, but not sure that makes much sense and I can't find any references in English that include a similar abbreviation. I'm also not sure if it's meant to be V0 or VO.

Any thoughts that might cast light on it much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

volume access intercept


Explanation:
"The volume axis intercept (V0) of the ESPVR changed little over the range of heart rate from 60 to 160 beats/min (10.2 +/- 2 ml to 9.4 +/- 1.3 ml) but increased to 15.2 +/- 1.2 ml at a rate of 200 beats/min. The change in ESPVR with increase in heart rate from 60 to 120 beats/min (i.e., increase in Ees without change in V0)..."
