Echocardiography is a commonly used and cost-effective test to assess heart conditions. During the test, cardiologists and technicians observe two cardiac phases-end-systolic (ES) and end-diastolic (ED)-which are critical for calculating heart chambe...

This study aimed to evaluate the potential of deep learning applied to the measurement of echocardiographic data in patients with sudden cardiac death (SCD). 320 SCD patients who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria underwent clinical evaluation,...
BACKGROUND: Evidence has shown the independent prognostic value of right ventricular (RV) function, even in patients with left-sided heart disease. The most widely used imaging technique to measure RV function is echocardiography; however, convention...
Artificial intelligence (AI) has been developed for echocardiography, although it has not yet been tested with blinding and randomization. Here we designed a blinded, randomized non-inferiority clinical trial (ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05140642; no o...

BACKGROUND: Aortic stenosis (AS) is a common form of valvular heart disease, present in over 12% of the population age 75 years and above. Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) is the first line of imaging in the adjudication of AS severity but is tim...
BACKGROUND: The adoption of point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) has greatly improved the ability to rapidly evaluate unstable emergency department (ED) patients at the bedside. One major use of POCUS is to obtain echocardiograms to assess cardiac functi...

PURPOSE: Conventional robotic ultrasound systems were utilized with patients in supine positions. Meanwhile, the limitation of the systems is that it is difficult to evacuate the patients in case of emergency (e.g., patient discomfort and system fail...
