2. Towards Heart Rate Variability Tools in P-Health : Pervasive, Preventive, Predictive and Personalized
Abstract : Heart rate variability (HRV) has received much attention lately. It has been shown that HRV can be used to monitor the autonomic nervous system and to detect autonomic dysfunction, especially vagal dysfunction. Reduced HRV is associated with several diseases and has also been suggested as a predictor of poor outcomes and sudden cardiac death. READ MORE

4. Exploring Polymer-Shelled Microbubbles: Detection Modeling and Application
Abstract : Ultrasound imaging (US) is widely used in clinical practice. Given the low cost and easy access to the ultrasound machine, US has a great potential to improve the health care condition for the majority of the population in the world. The US could be significantly improved by injecting ultrasound contrast agents to opacify the bloodstream. READ MORE

5. Assessment of Valvular Aortic Stenosis by Signal Analysis of the Phonocardiogram
Abstract : Aortic stenosis (AS) is one of the most prevalent valvular heart diseases in elderly people. According to the recommendations of both the American Heart Association and the European Society of Cardiology, severity assessment of AS is primarily based on echocardiographic findings. READ MORE
