Three-dimensional echocardiographic evaluation of longitudinal and non-longitudinal components of right ventricular contraction: results from the World Alliance of Societies of Echocardiography study Open
Aims Right ventricular (RV) functional assessment is mainly limited to its longitudinal contraction. Dedicated three-dimensional echocardiography (3DE) software enabled the separate assessment of the non-longitudinal components of RV eject…

The prognostic value of estimating stroke volume before and after exercise during treadmill stress echocardiography Open
Background: Stress echocardiography (SE) is an established technique for assessment of coronary artery disease (CAD) which is difficult to perform and interpret.Left ventricular stroke volume (SV) is readily estimated with Doppler echocard…

Echocardiographic Pulmonary to Left Atrial Ratio (ePLAR): A Comparison Study between Ironman Athletes, Age Matched Controls and A General Community Cohort Open
Background: During exercise there is a proportionally lower rise in systemic and pulmonary pressures compared to cardiac output due to reduced vascular resistance. Invasive exercise data suggest that systemic vascular resistance reduces mo…
