Novel ultrasound contrast agent dilution method for the assessment of ventricular ejection fraction.

AIMS: Left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction is an important determinant of prognosis in heart failure. We evaluated the accuracy of a novel algorithm for LV ejection fraction quantification based on indicator dilution curve (IDC) principles using ultrasound contrast as indicator, and compared the...
