Despite progressive improvements over the decades, the rich temporally resolved data in an echocardiogram remain underutilized. Human assessments reduce the complex patterns of cardiac wall motion, to a small list of measurements of heart function. A...
A focused cardiac ultrasound performed by an emergency physician is becoming part of the standard assessment of patients in a variety of clinical situations. The development of inexpensive, portable handheld devices promises to make point-of-care ult...
Ultrasound is one of the most important examinations for clinical diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases. The speed of image movements driven by the frequency of the beating heart is faster than that of other organs. This particularity of echocardiogra...
BACKGROUND: There is no established screening approach for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). We recently developed an artificial intelligence (AI) model for the detection of HCM based on the 12‑lead electrocardiogram (AI-ECG) in adults. Here, we aim...
OBJECTIVE: The role of deep learning-based echocardiography in the diagnosis and evaluation of the effects of routine anti-heart-failure Western medicines was investigated in elderly patients with acute left heart failure (ALHF).
INTRODUCTION: Rheumatic heart diseases (RHDs) contribute significant morbidity and mortality globally. To reduce the burden of RHD, timely initiation of secondary prophylaxis is important. The objectives of this study are to determine the frequency o...
As point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) becomes more integrated into clinical practice, it is essential to address all aspects of ultrasound operator proficiency. Ultrasound proficiency requires the ability to acquire, interpret and integrate bedside ult...
Undiagnosed dilated cardiomyopathy (DC) can be asymptomatic or present as sudden cardiac death, therefore pre-emptively identifying and treating patients may be beneficial. Screening for DC with echocardiography is expensive and labor intensive and s...
