BackgroundLeft ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) measurements by echocardiography are subject to problems such as low interobserver reproducibility, which depends on the skill of the observer, and variations in measurement technique. ObjectiveWe investigated the reproducibility of echocardiography by comparing the measurement results of a certified sonographer with those of control students. MethodsA total of 30 subjects, 22 adult students and 8 staff members of Shubun University, were incl...
