Finds documents with exactly this word group, in exactly this word order and spelling (e.g. "employer branding").
Finds documents with both search terms (e.g. sales AND bonus).
Finds documents with one or the other search term (e.g. porsche OR volkswagen).
Finds documents with all search terms. Blank space is understood as AND (e.g. man robot production).
Finds documents with no appearance of the word behind NOT (e.g. ford NOT "harrison ford").
Finds documents where the search term is mentioned at least "n" times."n" may be any number (e.g. COUNT(gear)>8).
Finds documents with both search terms in any word order, permitting "n" words as a maximum distance between them. Best choose between 15 and 30 (e.g. NEAR(recruit, professionals, 20)).
Finds documents with the search term in word versions or composites. The asterisk * marks whether you wish them BEFORE, BEHIND, or BEFORE and BEHIND the search term (e.g. lightweight*, *lightweight, *lightweight*).

Abstract

Purpose of Review

This review aims to provide an updated overview of the role of echocardiography in the assessment of cardiomyopathies, highlighting recent findings and technological advancements.

Recent Findings

Over the past few years, significant advancements in echocardiographic techniques have improved diagnostic accuracy and provided important prognostic value in the assessment of cardiomyopathies.

Summary

Cardiomyopathy is a group of diseases affecting the heart muscle. Echocardiography, a non-invasive imaging modality provides crucial information on cardiac structure, function, and hemodynamics. Recent advancements, including strain imaging, speckle-tracking, and 3D echocardiography enhance the precision of structural and functional assessments, while artificial intelligence integration improves diagnostic accuracy and workflow efficiency. These advancements not only refine diagnostic capabilities but also provide prognostic insights and facilitate better patient outcomes.
