Identification of the individual cardiac contraction threshold during high‐frame‐rate stress echocardiography

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The clinical assessment of cardiovascular function during exercise using stress echocardiography is essential for accurate cardiac diagnosis. However, normal limitations of cardiac deformation responses to increasing physical exertion remain poorly understood.

Pulmonary arterial mechanoreceptors mediate sustained sympathoexcitation during high altitude hypoxia in humans

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Sympathetic nervous system activation is a hallmark of high‐altitude hypoxia, yet the afferent mechanisms remain incompletely defined. We examined the relative contributions of pulmonary arterial mechanoreceptors and carotid chemoreceptors – two excitatory pathways co‐activated by hypoxia – to sustained sympathoexcitation at altitude.

Determinants of maximal oxygen uptake in highly trained females and males: a mechanistic study of sex differences using advanced invasive methods

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend The results from this study show that maximal cardiac output, stroke volume and leg blood flow are similar between highly trained females and males after normalisation to lean body mass (LBM). However, the 10% higher haemoglobin concentration ([Hb]) and arterial O2 content in males result in higher systemic and leg O2 delivery ...

Three-dimensional color Doppler flow assessment of ischemic mitral regurgitation

open access: yes, 2010
Purpose. Volume-rendered images of the mitral valve apparatus have enabled visualization of the MV leaflets, orifice, and submitral apparatus in a manner that is not possible using conventional 2-dimensional echocardiography.

Contrast-enhanced echocardiography for the diagnosis of apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

open access: yes, 2005
The echocardiographic diagnosis of apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy can be difficult in patients with poor acoustic windows. However, contrast-enhanced echocardiography can provide better images in these patients and lead to the correct diagnosis.

4D ultrasound reveals regional left atrial strain remodelling in a murine model of reversible pressure overload

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Traditional planar imaging approaches of the left atrium do not capture complex geometry. Four‐dimensional imaging allows the acquisition of 3D data + time to visualize left atrial geometry and kinematics. We designed an advanced analysis technique to investigate left atrial biomechanics in a model of pressure overload and ...

Presenting novel 2D echocardiographic views for pulmonary valve assessment in tetralogy of fallot patients

open access: yesBMC Cardiovascular Disorders
Background Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) is considered one of the most common surgically repaired congenital heart conditions. Continuous improvements in surgical techniques have aimed at preserving the pulmonary valve (PV).
