We have experienced 2 cases of doxorubicin induced cardiomyopathy in one patient with multiple eosinophilic granuloma and another patient with T cell leukemia.

Sensitivity and specificity of detection of Mitral Regurgitation (MR) was assessed by Color Doppler. The degree of MR was also estimated by the Regurgitant Jet Length and Maximum Regurgitant Jet Area/Left Atrial Area (Max. RJA/LAA)% and compared with that assessed by Left Ventriculography. The following results were obtained: 1) Of 108 patients with an adequate Color Doppler study, 90 han no MR by Ventriculography. All were...
