Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
The doctors will use ultrasound of the heart to measure E-Point Septal Separation (EPSS). EPSS is the distance between two parts of the heart, the mitral valve and the ventricular septum. EPSS is measured in millimeters (mm). EPSS can estimate left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) as a measure of how well the heart pumps blood.
