Current Research Themes in Cardiovascular Biophysics Laboratory

• Parameterized diastolic filling (PDF) formalism

• Phase plane analysis of diastolic function

• Phase plane analysis of ventricular-vascular coupling

• Non-linear analysis of heart function

• Load independent index of diastolic function

• Diabetes and diastolic function

• Mitral annular motion and longitudinal left ventricular diastolic function

• Segmental diastolic function assessment

• Diastolic function analysis in the frequency, rather than time domain

• Constant volume attribute of the four-chambered heart and its implications

• Kinematic filling efficiency of the left ventricle
