Accurate assessment of mitral regurgitation (MR) severity is critical in clinical diagnosis and treatment. No single echocardiographic method has been recommended for MR quantification thus far. We sought to define the feasibility and accuracy of the...
BACKGROUND: We have recently tested an automated machine-learning algorithm that quantifies left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction (EF) from guidelines-recommended apical views. However, in the point-of-care (POC) setting, apical 2-chamber views are...
AIMS: This study sought to examine the feasibility, accuracy and reproducibility of a novel, fully automated 2D transthoracic echocardiography (2D TTE) parasternal long axis (PLAX) view aortic measurements quantification software compared to board-ce...

Machine learning techniques designed to recognize views and perform measurements are increasingly used to address the need for automation of the interpretation of echocardiographic images. The current study was designed to determine whether a recentl...
OBJECTIVE: To explore the clinical value of 3D Echocardiography (3DE) in evaluating the changes of left atrial volume and pulmonary vein structure in patients with Atrial Fibrillation (AF).
OBJECTIVE: Valvular heart diseases (VHDs) pose a significant public health burden, and deciding the best treatment strategy necessitates accurate assessment of heart valve function. Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) is the key modality to evaluate...

Fluid dynamics of the heart chamber can provide critical biological cues for understanding cardiac health and disease and have the potential for supporting diagnosis and prognosis. However, directly acquiring fluid dynamics information from clinical ...
Cardiac motion estimation is important for assessing the contractile health of the heart, and performing this in 3D can provide advantages due to the complex 3D geometry and motions of the heart. Deep learning image registration (DLIR) is a robust wa...
