  • Causa
    When using the qlab auto 2d quantification (a2dq) and auto cardiac motion quantification (acmq) applications to calculate end-systolic volume (esv), the reported esv may be smaller than the esv calculated by manual tracing without the use of qlab. correspondingly, the left ventricular ejection fraction (ef) calculated using these applications may be higher than the ef calculated by manual tracing without the use of qlab. philips’ investigation has found that this difference may occur in cases where the ef is less than approximately 40%.An incorrect ejection fraction calculation could lead to misdiagnosis and/or delayed or incorrect therapy if healthcare providers make clinical decisions based solely on these measurements, without considering other available clinical data.
