ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryAbsolute Value of LVEF Percentage Differences From CMR by Blinded ReaderUp to 30 days between day of echocardiograms and CMR imaging
Demonstrate improvement in accuracy in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) assessment using DEFINITY® contrast-enhanced over unenhanced echocardiography by comparing LVEF percentage differences from CMR measured by 3 independent blinded image readers.
SecondarySecondary Objective 1: Absolute Value of LVEF Percentage Differences From CMR by Blinded Reader for Sub-optimal EchocardiogramsUp to 30 days between day of echocardiogram and CMR imaging
Demonstrate improvement in accuracy in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) assessment using DEFINITY® contrast-enhanced over unenhanced echocardiography in subjects with suboptimal echocardiograms by comparing LVEF percentage differences from CMR measured by 3 independent blinded readers.
SecondarySecondary Objective 2: Absolute Value LVEF Percentage Differences From CMR Between Blinded ReadersUp to 30 days between day of echocardiograms and CMR imaging
Demonstrate a reduction in inter-reader variability for the assessment of left ventricular ejection fraction using DEFINITY® contrast-enhanced versus unenhanced echocardiography by comparing LVEF percentage differences from CMR between 3 independent blinded readers.
SecondarySecondary Objective 3: Absolute Value End-diastolic and Systolic Volume Differences From CMR Between Blinded ReadersUp to 30 days between day of echocardiogram and CMR imaging
Demonstrate a reduction in inter-reader variability for the assessment of end-diastolic/systolic volumes using DEFINITY® contrast-enhanced versus unenhanced echocardiography by comparing end-diastolic and systolic volume differences from CMR between 3 independent blinded readers.
SecondarySecondary Objective 4: Absolute Value of LVEF Percentage Differences From CMR Between Readers for Sub-optimal EchocardiogramsUp to 30 days between day of echocardiograms and CMR imaging
Demonstrate a reduction in inter-reader variability for the assessment of left ventricular ejection fraction using DEFINITY® contrast-enhanced versus unenhanced echocardiography by comparing LVEF percentage differences from CMR between 3 independent blinded readers in subjects with suboptimal echocardiograms.
SecondarySecondary Objective 5: Absolute Value End-diastolic and Systolic Volume Differences From CMR Between Blinded Readers for Suboptimal EchocardiogramsUp to 30 days between day of echocardiograms and CMR imaging
Demonstrate a reduction in inter-reader variability for the assessment of end-diastolic/systolic volumes using DEFINITY® contrast-enhanced versus unenhanced echocardiography by comparing end-diastolic and systolic volume differences from CMR between 3 independent blinded readers in subjects with suboptimal echocardiograms.
