Chest sonography: a useful tool to differentiate acute cardiogenic pulmonary edema from acute respiratory distress syndrome

Roberto Copetti, Gino Soldati, Paolo Copetti · 1 Apr 2008

BACKGROUND: Differential diagnosis between acute cardiogenic pulmonary edema (APE) and acute lung injury/acute respiratory distress syndrome (ALI/ARDS) may often be difficult. We evaluated the ability of chest sonography in the identification of characteristic pleuropulmonary signs useful in the diagnosis of ALI/ARDS and APE. METHODS: Chest sonography was performed on admission to the intensive care unit…

Feasibility and reference values of left atrial longitudinal strain imaging by two-dimensional speckle tracking

Matteo Cameli, Maria Caputo, Sergio Mondillo et al. · 8 Feb 2009

BACKGROUND: The role of speckle tracking in the assessment of left atrial (LA) deformation dynamics is not established. We sought to determine the feasibility and reference ranges of LA longitudinal strain indices measured by speckle tracking in a population of normal subjects. METHODS: In 60 healthy individuals, peak atrial longitudinal strain (PALS) and time to…

How I do it: Lung ultrasound

Luna Gargani, Giovanni Volpicelli · 4 Jul 2014

In the last 15 years, a new imaging application of sonography has emerged in the clinical arena: lung ultrasound (LUS). From its traditional assessment of pleural effusions and masses, LUS has moved towards the revolutionary approach of imaging the pulmonary parenchyma, mainly as a point-of-care technique. Although limited by the presence of air, LUS has…

Echocardiographic quantification of myocardial function using tissue deformation imaging, a guide to image acquisition and analysis using tissue Doppler and speckle tracking

Arco J. Teske, Bart WL De Boeck, Paul G. Melman et al. · 30 Aug 2007

Recent developments in the field of echocardiography have allowed the cardiologist to objectively quantify regional and global myocardial function. Regional deformation (strain) and deformation rate (strain-rate) can be calculated non-invasively in both the left and right ventricle, providing information on regional (dys-)function in a variety of clinical settings. Although this promising novel technique is increasingly…

Lung ultrasound: a new tool for the cardiologist

Luna Gargani · 27 Feb 2011

For many years the lung has been considered off-limits for ultrasound. However, it has been recently shown that lung ultrasound (LUS) may represent a useful tool for the evaluation of many pulmonary conditions in cardiovascular disease. The main application of LUS for the cardiologist is the assessment of B-lines. B-lines are reverberation artifacts, originating from…

Cardiovascular Ultrasound template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the Cardiovascular Ultrasound format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Cardiovascular Ultrasound template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official BMC (BioMed Central) format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does Cardiovascular Ultrasound use?
Cardiovascular Ultrasound uses Numbered (Vancouver) references, shown as numbered [1], [2] markers in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: 1. Smith A, Jones B, Lee C. A representative article title. Cardiovascular Ultrasound. 2023;12(3):45–58.
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to Cardiovascular Ultrasound?
No. DocuGuru generates the bmcart LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a BMC (BioMed Central)-ready Cardiovascular Ultrasound document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
Can I import an existing draft into the Cardiovascular Ultrasound template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the Cardiovascular Ultrasound format with correct headings, figures, tables, and numbered citations.
What is Cardiovascular Ultrasound?
BMC / BioMed Central journal. It is a life sciences and medicine journal, published by BMC (BioMed Central).
Can I export a submission-ready Cardiovascular Ultrasound PDF?
Yes — DocuGuru produces a PDF built with the official Cardiovascular Ultrasound template (the bmcart class) that is ready to submit to BMC (BioMed Central), together with the matching LaTeX source files.
How much does the Cardiovascular Ultrasound template cost?
You can start writing in the Cardiovascular Ultrasound template for free. Exporting the final submission-ready Cardiovascular Ultrasound PDF and LaTeX source is part of DocuGuru's paid plans — see the app for current pricing.
