Italiano term

CVG

Da Italiano a Inglese Medico/Sanitario Medicina: Cardiologia Diagnostic Tests
I find this acronym in a report about a patient with cardiac symptoms - dispnea, setto paradosso, discinesia apicale, ipertofia parietale ....

The complete sentence says: "Pertanto, si ricovera per essere sottoposto a CVG."

What kind of test is a CVG? I have the impression it's an imaging study of the heart valves or ventricles, but I'm not sure and in any case I can't think of an English term.

Cosa pensate?

Grazie.

4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "Thank you Sue. I wasn't precise enough in my question - what I needed was the English version of the Italian acronym, and your answer pointed me to it. By the way, I've also found the term 'contrast ventriculography' which is abbreviated the same way."

Ciao Joseph,

mi sembra che "coronary ventriculography" sia un termine utilizzato in inglese:

Note from asker:
Ciao Gilberto. Grazie anche per la tua risposta.
Ciao Gilberto! Three (+) years later I have the same question: Come diciamo "coronaroventricolografia" in inglese? Tonight's sentence says "Veniva eseguita CVG in urgenza che mostrava IVA occlusa ... " Grazie.
Ciao, grazie della risposta. Forse e' utilizzato spesso nelle traduzioni dal russo! A lot of the references are by the same Russian authors [ Ianovskiĭ GV, Stepanenko AP, Efimtseva TK.]. Here's a link just for fun:http://www.oleg.syedyshev.name/pages/about-me/disease.php?a=2. And in some of the Italian references I've been reading tonight, it seems that they use it like "coronarografia". Beh ... don't spend any more time on it!
