Tissue Doppler Imaging (TDI) plays a major role in evaluating the left ventricular function [1]. This modality is characterized by an intrinsic noise, which leads to the classical thickness of the graphs displayed in commercial ultrasonic equipment. The agreement between TDI and Mitral Annulus Plane Excursion (MAPE) has been shown to be sub-optimal [2]. We hypothesize that this discordance is due to the noise in TDI. By taking the neighborhood...
