Detailed Description

The study is an open label, single arm prospective study. This goal of the study is to learn about echocardiography images in relation to the developed guidance tool software in cardiac patients population. Participants will undergo one session of transthoracic echocardiography exam. The ultrasound will be performed by a sonographer for images acquiring purposes
