Brief Summary
This is a Phase 3, prospective, open-label, multicenter study to evaluate Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction (LVEF) measurement accuracy and reproducibility of DEFINITY® contrast-enhanced and unenhanced echocardiography as compared with non-contrast cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) used as the truth standard.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Absolute Value of LVEF Percentage Differences From CMR by Blinded Reader
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.
Up to 30 days between day of echocardiograms and CMR imaging
Secondary Outcomes (5)
Secondary Objective 1: Absolute Value of LVEF Percentage Differences From CMR by Blinded Reader for Sub-optimal Echocardiograms
Up to 30 days between day of echocardiogram and CMR imaging
Secondary Objective 2: Absolute Value LVEF Percentage Differences From CMR Between Blinded Readers
Up to 30 days between day of echocardiograms and CMR imaging
Secondary Objective 3: Absolute Value End-diastolic and Systolic Volume Differences From CMR Between Blinded Readers
Up to 30 days between day of echocardiogram and CMR imaging
Secondary Objective 4: Absolute Value of LVEF Percentage Differences From CMR Between Readers for Sub-optimal Echocardiograms
Up to 30 days between day of echocardiograms and CMR imaging
Secondary Objective 5: Absolute Value End-diastolic and Systolic Volume Differences From CMR Between Blinded Readers for Suboptimal Echocardiograms
Up to 30 days between day of echocardiograms and CMR imaging
Study Arms (1)

Interventions
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Men and women ≥ 18 years of age in sinus rhythm
- Able to communicate effectively with trial personnel
- LVEF measurements obtained via 2D Echo with or without contrast obtained within 6 months prior to enrollment (Day 0)
- Has provided signed informed consent after receiving a verbal and written explanation of this clinical trial
You may not qualify if:
- Female subjects who are pregnant or lactating. All women of child bearing potential \[WOCBP\] must have a negative urine pregnancy test at screening regardless of contraceptive use history.
- Women of child-bearing potential are excluded unless they:
- are post-menopausal defined as amenorrhea ≥ 12 consecutive months, OR
- have undergone successful surgical sterilization (hysterectomy, bilateral tubal ligation or bilateral oophorectomy), OR
- have been using an adequate and medically approved method of contraception to avoid pregnancy for at least 1 month prior to DEFINITY® dose administration and be willing to continue using the same method for the duration of the study.
- Current illness or pathology that would prevent undergoing investigational product administration due to a significant safety risk to the patient.
- Uncontrolled arterial hypertension (defined as systolic blood pressure ≥ 200 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure ≥ 110 mmHg) or arterial hypotension (defined as systolic blood pressure ≤ 90 mmHg).
- Unstable cardiovascular status defined as:
- myocardial infarction or unstable angina pectoris within 6 months prior to enrollment/DEFINITY® dose administration day
- transient ischemic attack or stroke within 3 months prior to DEFINITY® dose administration
- symptomatic valvular heart disease or moderate to severe stenotic valvular heart disease
- clinically significant congenital heart defects
- current uncontrolled cardiac arrhythmias causing symptoms or hemodynamic compromise
- acute pulmonary embolus or pulmonary infarction
- acute myocarditis or pericarditis
