Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is recognized as the leading cause of mortality throughout
the world. About one-third of global mortality is attributable to CVD. In addition to clinical …

Background Since the last century, the electrocardiogram (ECG) remains the non‐invasive
test, that is, most easily accessible, feasible, and inexpensive for cardiology assessment. In …

A high-sensitivity low-frequency fiber-optic Fabry-Perot (FP) acoustic sensing scheme was
proposed based on optical cross-correlation (OCC). The finite element method (FEM) is …

Background Due to the limitations of current methods for detecting obstructive coronary
artery disease (CAD), many individuals are mistakenly or unnecessarily referred for …

Heart sound signals reflect valuable information about heart condition. Previous studies
have suggested that the information contained in single-channel heart sound signals can be …

Objective. Heart sounds can reflect detrimental changes in cardiac mechanical activity that
are common pathological characteristics of chronic heart failure (CHF). The ACC/AHA heart …

Objective: Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a common fatal disease. At present, an accurate
method to screen CAD is urgently needed. This study aims to provide optimal detection …

Aims Recent technological advances enable diagnosing of obstructive coronary artery
disease (CAD) from heart sound analysis with a high negative predictive value. However …

Abstract Background and Aims Overtesting of low-risk patients with suspect chronic coronary
syndrome (CCS) is widespread. The acoustic-based coronary artery disease (CAD)-score …

Previous studies have shown that the acoustic characteristics of coronary heart disease
(CHD) are the diastolic turbulent murmurs. But there is little research on how to distinguish …
