Current and Evolving Echocardiographic Techniques for the Quantitative Evaluation of Cardiac Mechanics: ASE/EAE Consensus Statement on Methodology and Indications

American Society of Echocardiography Consensus Statement on the Clinical Applications of Ultrasonic Contrast Agents in Echocardiography

Echocardiographic reference ranges for normal cardiac chamber size: results from the NORRE study

The NORRE study provides useful two-dimensional echocardiographic reference ranges for cardiac chamber quantification. These data highlight the need for body size normalization ...

Normal Reference Ranges for Echocardiography: rationale, study design, and methodology (NORRE Study)

After completion of the NORRE Study, uniform reference limits according to age, gender, and anthropometric parameters will be available to standardize the quantitative interpret...

Systemic vascular resistance: an unreliable index of left ventricular afterload.

Systemic vascular resistance (SVR) is a frequently used clinical index of left ventricular afterload. However, SVR may not adequately assess left ventricular afterload (i.e., ve...

Age- and Gender-Dependency of Left Ventricular Geometry Assessed with Real-Time Three-Dimensional Transthoracic Echocardiography

Evaluation of left ventricular structure and function by three-dimensional echocardiography

With real-time 3DTTE, one can acquire and display a 3D image encompassing the entire LV within seconds. Because 3DTTE aids in identification of the true LV apex, it provides mor...
