Lung ultrasound (LUS) is a cheap, safe and non-invasive imaging modality that can be performed at patient bed-side. However, to date LUS not widely adopted due lack of trained personnel required for interpreting the acquired frames. In this work we propose framework training deep artificial neural networks LUS, which may promote broader use LUS. When using evaluate patient's condition, both anatomical phenomena (e.g., pleural line, presence consolidations), as well sonographic artifacts...
Abstract Background American and European valvular heart disease guidelines suggest considering aortic valve surgery in patients with severe regurgitation (AR) progressive increase left ventricle (LV) end diastolic diameter (LVEDD) into the range or decrease LV function. Surprisingly, there are almost no studies that actually examined systematically rate of change over time these widely used parameters clinical practice AR. Purpose determine LVEDD, ventricular systolic (LVESD) fractional...
Mitral regurgitation (MR) generally accompanies inferobasal myocardial infarction (MI), with leaflet tethering by displaced papillary muscles. is also reported anteroapical MI without global dilatation or inferior wall motion abnormalities. We hypothesized that extending to the apex displaces muscles, mitral leaflets cause MR.In retrospective part of study, consecutive patients were studied. Moderate-severe MR occurred in 9% 234 only versus 17% 242 inferoapical extension (P<0.001). Ejection...
Identification and quantification of segmental left ventricular wall motion abnormalities on echocardiograms is paramount clinical importance but still performed by a subjective visual method. We constructed an automatic tool for assessment based longitudinal strain.Echocardiograms 105 patients (3 apical views) were blindly analyzed 12 experienced readers. Visual scores (VSS) peak systolic strain assigned to each 18 segments per patient. Ranges that best fit VSS (by receiver operating...
