Artificial Intelligence –Assisted Left Ventricular Diastolic Function Assessment and Grading: Multiview Versus Single View
Clinical assessment and grading of left ventricular diastolic function (LVDF) requires quantification of multiple echocardiographic parameters interpreted according to established guidelines, which depends on experienced clinicians and is time consuming. The aim of this study was to develop an artificial intelligence (AI) –assisted system to facilitate the clinical assessment of LVDF. (Source: Journal of the American Society of Echocardiography)

State-of-the-Art: Noninvasive Assessment of Left Ventricular Function Through Myocardial Work
The assessment of myocardial work (MW) using noninvasive pressure-strain loop analysis is a novel echocardiographic method that provides a more precise assessment of cardiac performance by considering the left ventricular loading condition. By integrating various MW components such as index, efficiency, and constructive and wasted work, an extensive analysis of left ventricular mechanics and energetics can be achieved. This approach offers a more comprehensive assessment of global cardiac function and performance, surpassing conventional surrogate indices.

Myocardial Work in Apical Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy
This study aimed to (1) evaluate myocardial work indices in patients with ApHCM compared with those with non-ApHCM, (2) describe associations with relevant clinical variables, and (3) examine associations with significant late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) on cardiac magnetic resonance imaging.

Clinical Value of a Novel Three-Dimensional Echocardiography –Derived Index of Right Ventricle–Pulmonary Artery Coupling in Tricuspid Regurgitation
Echocardiographic surrogates of right ventricle –to–pulmonary artery (RV-PA) coupling have been reported to be associated with outcomes in patients with secondary tricuspid regurgitation (STR). However, pulmonary artery systolic pressure (PASP) is difficult to estimate using echocardiography in patients with severe STR. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the predictive power of a surrogate of RV-PA coupling obtained using right ventricular (RV) volumes measured on three-dimensional echocardiography.

Membership in the American Society of Echocardiography: An Unforgettable Journey
As I look back over my years of membership in the American Society of Echocardiography (ASE), I am filled with both a sense of awe and a deep gratitude for all the opportunities that I have had to participate and grow in our Society. From my initial abstract presentation at the Scientific Sessions as a fellow over 25  years ago, I can’t help but remember all the individuals at ASE who have shaped and guided my career, all the task forces and committees that I have been able to serve on, and all the leadership roles that have allowed me to more fully appreciate the depth and breadth of our Society.
