echo doppler
The abbreviations esp. and fas. appear in a table giving the results of an echo doppler, checking for signs of deep vein thrombosis in a patient's legs. Results (+ or -) are given for different sections (femoral, tibial, etc.) Can anyone tell me what these abbreviations stand for and if there is a standard English abbreviation?

No estoy 100% segura, pero la traducción de fas me parece, por lo que encontré, que es systolic shortening fraction.
Suerte!

ESP =
Early Systolic Paradox
Effective Systolic Pressure
End-systolic Pressure
Esclerosis sistémica progresiva
Though I doubt it's the last one, if it's an ECG
By the way, are
ESP and FAS both Spanish abbreviations?

Note from asker:
| Unfortunately you can never be quite sure. Spanish texts quite often include English abbreviations, so TAC may well appear as CAT, etc. |
