Popis: | This article is a continuation of the series ‘Figurative comparisons and eponyms in functional diagnostics’ systematized figurative comparisons and eponyms used in echocardiography. The contribution of great scientists to medicine is reflected here. They left their names in the name of the medical terms that they discovered (the names of diseases and syndromes, normal and pathological structures of the heart) in the form of eponymous names: Doppler, Menkeberg, Lambl Eustachio, Chiari, Valsalva, Fallo, Ebstein, Botallo, Lutembacher, Marfan, Barlow and others. Figurative comparisons are also described: ‘fish mouth’, ‘mercedes’, ‘smiley’, ‘hockey stick’, ‘dagger’, ‘scream of a seagull’, ‘candle flame’, ‘bull’s eye’, ‘snow storm’, etc. The terms given in the article have not only scientific, but also applied meaning. The terms will be useful and interesting to medical students, residents graduate students and practical doctors (doctors of functional and ultrasound diagnostics, cardiologists). This article will help test and possibly update their knowledge. |
