Previous large-scale analyses have reported significant systolic and diastolic blood pressure (SBP and DBP) reductions from varying exercise modes. 21–26 Based on previous work, traditional aerobic ...

Figure 21. Coarctation of the aorta. (A & B) are cine steady-state free precession images at end-diastole and mid-systole, respectively, demonstrating the Coa and the jet of turbulence (arrows).

End-diastolic (ED) and end-systolic (ES) frame identification and landmark detection are crucial steps of estimating right ventricle function in clinic practice. However, the complex morphology of the ...

Precise estimation of fiducial points of a seismocardiogram (SCG) signal is a challenging problem for its clinical usage. Delineation techniques proposed in the existing literature do not estimate all ...

Three important determinants of left ventricular (LV) peak early diastolic filling rate, which is related directly to the magnitude of the transmitral pressure difference, are the rate of LV ...
