Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Are at least 18-years old;
- Have suboptimal LV EBD, defined as ≥2 adjacent segments in any apical view that cannot be visualized, at pre-contrast echocardiogram;
- Provide their written informed consent and are willing to comply with protocol requirements.
You may not qualify if:
- Patient has severe congestive heart failure (class IV according to the classification of the New York Heart Association);
- Patient has uncontrolled angina (i.e., uncontrolled on medication);
- Patient had a recent myocardial infarction (within the last 3 days and not stabilized);
- Patient has severe arrhythmia, that in the opinion of the Investigator, would interfere with the study conduct;
- Patient has severe pulmonary hypertension, that in the opinion of the Investigator, would interfere with the study conduct;
- Patient had been treated with any other contrast medium, either intravascular or orally, within 48 hours prior to the first administration;
- Has any known allergy to one or more of the ingredients of the investigational product;
- Is pregnant or lactating. Exclude the possibility of pregnancy by: testing on site (serum or urine βHCG) prior to the start of investigational product administration; surgical history (e.g., tubal ligation or hysterectomy); post-menopausal with a minimum 1 year without menses;
- Has previously entered the study or have received any other investigational drug within 30 days prior to admission in this study;
- Is determined by the Investigator that the patient is clinically unsuitable for the study.
