Estimating ejection fraction and heart failure severity using cardiac apex angles: a multiphase pilot study
Access to echo may be limited in resource-constrained settings. Utilizing CXRs to estimate EF offers a practical alternative, potentially enabling early diagnosis and standardized treatment. This approach leverages common imaging modalities to bridge diagnostic gaps and improve HF management.
