Transthoracic Echocardiography
To evaluate left ventricular function, an echocardiography is typically performed. According to NICE (National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence) recommendations, this is frequently asked for when patients exhibit heart failure-related symptoms. Despite the fact that clinical data and fundamental studies frequently reveal patients with severe left ventricular systolic dysfunction,4-6 echocardiography can measure the severity and pinpoint the underlying reason. It may be more challenging to diagnose clinically, but many heart failure patients also have concurrent or predominant diastolic dysfunction which should be suspected in patients who have heart failure symptoms but normal systolic function, especially the elderly and those with hypertension.

Upcoming Case Discussions
Hepatic Regeneration After Hepatectomy
Hepatic regeneration after hepatectomy is a dynamic process where the liver rapidly repairs and regenerates its tissue by activating hepatocytes and liver progenitor cells. This regenerative ability is essential for restoring liver function and maintaining homeostasis following partial liver resection or injury.
Fluorescence Guided Breast Cancer Surgery
Fluorescence-guided breast cancer surgery uses fluorescent dyes, such as indocyanine green (ICG), to illuminate cancerous tissues and lymph nodes, aiding surgeons in precisely identifying and removing tumors. This technique improves surgical outcomes by enhancing the visualization of cancerous areas, reducing the chances of leaving residual cancer cells behind.
