Right ventricular ejection fraction measurements using two-dimensional transthoracic echocardiography by applying an ellipsoid model

BACKGROUND: There is today no established approach to estimate right ventricular ejection fraction (RVEF) using 2D transthoracic echocardiography (TTE). The aim of this study was to evaluate a new method for RVEF calculations using 2D TTE and compare the results with cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR)...
