Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) can result in deterioration of cardiac function, which is associated with high mortality. A simple point-of-care diagnostic test to screen for ventricular dysfunction would be clinically useful to guide management....
PURPOSE OF THE REVIEW: Point-of-care ultrasound using small ultrasound devices has expanded beyond emergency and critical care medicine to many other subspecialties. Awareness of the strengths and limitations of the technology and knowledge of the ap...

Echocardiography is a unique diagnostic tool for intraoperative monitoring and assessment of patients with cardiovascular diseases. However, there are high levels of interoperator variations in echocardiography interpretations that could lead to inac...
BACKGROUND: Subclinical diastolic dysfunction is a precursor for developing heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF); yet not all patients progress to HFpEF. Our objective was to evaluate clinical and echocardiographic variables to iden...
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Echocardiography is an indispensable tool in diagnostic cardiology and is fundamental to clinical care. Significant advances in cardiovascular imaging technology paralleled by rapid growth in electronic medical records, miniaturize...
Three-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography (3D STE) is an emerging noninvasive method for predicting left ventricular remodeling (LVR) after acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Previous studies analyzed the predictive value of 3D STE with tra...

PURPOSE: To achieve accurate image segmentation, which is the first critical step in medical image analysis and interventions, using deep neural networks seems a promising approach provided sufficiently large and diverse annotated data from experts. ...
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Recent development in artificial intelligence (AI) for cardiovascular imaging analysis, involving deep learning, is the start of a new phase in the research field. We review the current state of AI in cardiovascular field and discu...
AIM: Continuous real-time echocardiographic monitoring is essential for guidance during ASD closure. However, transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) can only be implemented intermittently during fluoroscopy. We evaluate a novel approach to provide real...
