In-hospital COVID-19 infection echocardiographic analysis: a Brazilian, tertiary single-centre experience

open access: yesCardiovascular Ultrasound, 2021
Background Information is lacking concerning in-hospital echocardiography analysis of COVID-19 infection in Brazil. We evaluated echocardiographic parameters to predict a composite endpoint of mortality, pulmonary thromboembolism or acute renal failure ...

Risk assessment in interstitial lung disease: the incremental prognostic value of cardiopulmonary ultrasound

open access: yesBMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2021
Background The mortality risk of chronic interstitial lung disease (ILD) is currently assessed using the ILD-GAP score. The present study evaluates whether the addition of cardiopulmonary ultrasound parameters to the ILD-GAP score can further improve the

Synthetic Boost: Leveraging Synthetic Data for Enhanced Vision-Language Segmentation in Echocardiography [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Accurate segmentation is essential for echocardiography-based assessment of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). However, the variability among sonographers and the inherent challenges of ultrasound images hinder precise segmentation. By leveraging the joint representation of image and text modalities, Vision-Language Segmentation Models (VLSMs) can ...

The impact of different geometric assumption of mitral annulus on the assessment of mitral regurgitation volume by Doppler method

open access: yesCardiovascular Ultrasound, 2020
Background Mitral regurgitation volume (MRvol) by quantitative pulsed Doppler (QPD) method previously recommended suffers from geometric assumption error because of circular geometric assumption of mitral annulus (MA).
