Investigation Into the Utility of 3D Speckle‐Tracking Echocardiography in Detecting Coronary Artery Microcirculation Dysfunction in Ischemia With Non‐Obstructive Coronary Artery Disease

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
By detecting the subtle regional contractile dysfunction, 3D‐STE can efficiently distinguish CMCD and present a novel strategy for diagnosing INOCA. ABSTRACT Aim To assess the utility of three‐dimensional speckle‐tracking echocardiography (3D‐STE) in detecting coronary artery microcirculation dysfunction (CMCD) with non‐obstructive coronary artery ...

Defining minimum image quality criteria for common diagnostic point‐of‐care ultrasound images: A position statement of the Society of Hospital Medicine

Journal of Hospital Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Point‐of‐care ultrasound (POCUS) use continues to expand across multiple clinical subspecialties, and the need for standardization of training and quality assurance has become increasingly important. Despite the need for training, there are currently no widely accepted multispecialty criteria to define an acceptable quality POCUS ...

Comparative diagnostic accuracy study of point of care ultrasound techniques for detection of left atrial enlargement by hospital medicine physicians from archived echocardiogram images

Journal of Hospital Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Left atrial enlargement (LAE) is predictive of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Prior studies of point‐of‐care ultrasound (POCUS) interpretation methods for identifying LAE utilized older echocardiographic reference ranges. Objectives Compare the test characteristics of hospitalist‐performed POCUS techniques for identifying ...

Quantitative MRI Values for Atrial and Ventricular Parameters in Altitude‐Dwelling Youth

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The hypoxic environment on the Qinghai Plateau significantly exacerbates myocardial remodeling, with sex/ethnicity‐specific variations in cardiac parameters among local youth. Current cardiac MRI reference values lack data from physiologically adapted populations on this plateau.

Alcohol Septal Ablation in Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy: Long‐Term Follow‐Up of Deformations and Hemodynamics

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background A detailed evaluation of hemodynamics, supportive morphology, and deformation may help uncover the pathophysiology of hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM) and the changes wrought by alcohol septal ablation (ASA). Purpose To investigate the global cardiac volume, myocardial deformation, and hemodynamic characteristics ...
