ejection fraction


Explanation:
Echocardiographic measures of ejection fraction give mean values 5% higher than radionuclide ventriculography (Simpson's 30±9%, vs. Teicholz 30±13% vs. radionuclide ventriculography 25±9%, p=0.03).

Fraction d'éjection Teicholz: FE = (VTD - VTS) / VTD (N > 60%)

FEj (teicholz)


Explanation:
Je laisserais tel quel car il s'agit d'une référence/unité de mesure (je ne pense pas que FE fasse ref. à "Fraction d'Ejection" ici sinon ce serait en anglais, ie "EF")
