Despite recent advances in imaging for myocardial deformation, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) is still the most important index for systolic function in daily practice. Its role in multiple fields (e.g., valvular heart disease, myocardial ...
The presence of left ventricular systolic dysfunction (LVSD) alters clinical management and prognosis in most acute and chronic cardiovascular conditions. While transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) remains the most common diagnostic tool to screen fo...

In impedance cardiography (ICG), the detection of dZ/dt signal (ICG) characteristic points, especially the X point, is a crucial step for the calculation of hemodynamic parameters such as stroke volume (SV) and cardiac output (CO). Unfortunately, for...
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...
The use of sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors to treat heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is under investigation in ongoing clinical trials, but the exact mechanism of action is unclear. Here we aimed to use artificial int...
OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to explore the prognostic significance of PTT and PBVi using an automated, inline method of estimation using CMR.
OBJECTIVES: The authors explored a deep neural network (DeepNN) model that integrates multidimensional echocardiographic data to identify distinct patient subgroups with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF).
