Abstract

Left Ventricular Ejection Time (LVET) is a sensitive indicator of early cardiac dysfunction, yet its routine use in first-line population screening is hindered by the operational and time demands of operator-dependent modalities like echocardiography. In this study, we introduce a scalable, contactless approach using laser Doppler vibrometry (LDV) signals targeted at the suprasternal notch (SSN) t…
