Until now, however, little consideration has been given to understanding the anatomy with …

For many years, the echocardiographic quantitative assessment of right ventricular (RV)
function has been difficult owing to the complex RV anatomy. Identifying an accurate and …

While ventricular electromechanics is extensively studied in both physiological and
pathological conditions, four-chamber heart models have only been addressed recently; …

The heart is a remarkably complex organ. Teaching its details to medical students and
