Ascending Aortic Strain Analysis Using 2‐Dimensional Speckle Tracking Echocardiography Improves the Diagnostics for Coronary Artery Stenosis in Patients With Suspected Stable Angina Pectoris

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2018
Background Arterial stiffening and atherosclerosis tend to coexist. Strain imaging, using a 2‐dimensional speckle tracking (2D‐ST) method, has been used for arterial stiffness assessment and early identification of atherosclerosis.

Computer-based training in two-dimensional echocardiography using an echocardiography simulator

, 2022
S.362-366Two-dimensional (2D) echocardiography is a user-dependant technique that poses some inherent problems to the beginner. The first problem for beginners is spatial orientation, especially the orientation of the scan plane in reference to the 3 ...

Echo and heart failure: when do people need an echo, and when do they need natriuretic peptides?

Echo Research and Practice, 2018
Heart failure (HF) is a threat to public health. Heterogeneities in aetiology and phenotype complicate the diagnosis and management of HF. This is especially true when considering HF with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), which makes up 50% of HF ...

Longitudinal strain of right ventricular free wall by 2-dimensional speckle-tracking echocardiography is useful for detecting pulmonary hypertension [PDF]

, 2014
Aims Echocardiography is widely used for screening pulmonary hypertension (PH). More recently developed two-dimensional speckle-tracking echocardiography (2D-STE) can assess regional deformation of the myocardium and is useful for detecting left ...

Role of 3D Myocardial Strain Imaging in Detecting Chemotherapy Induced Cardiotoxicity in Lymphoma Patients. [PDF]

Al-Azhar International Medical Journal
Background: Three-dimensional (3D) echocardiography has proven to be the most consistent and reliable ultrasound method for assessing left ventricular (LV) volumes and ejection fraction (EF) over a 6-month follow-up in patients receiving chemotherapy for

Double-chambered left ventricle diagnosis by 2D and 3D echocardiography : From fetus to birth

, 2019
Double-chambered left ventricle (DCLV) is a rare cardiac anomaly and is characterized by the division of the left ventricle by abnormal muscle and/or fiber bundles into two chambers.

Right ventricular function in pregnant women with or without preeclampsia

Al-Azhar Assiut Medical Journal, 2020
Background Preeclamsia (PE) is a multisystem disorder that affects maternal and fetal outcomes. We aimed to assess right heart function in PE by echocardiography using conventional, tissue Doppler techniques, and 2D and 4D strain.

EAE/ASE recommendations for the use of echocardiography in new transcatheter interventions for valvular heart disease

, 2011
The introduction of devices for transcatheter aortic valve implantation, mitral repair, and closure of prosthetic paravalvular leaks has led to a greatly expanded armamentarium of catheter-based approaches to patients with regurgitant as well as stenotic

Four-Dimensional Speckle Tracking Echocardiography in Patients with Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy

, 2015
Objective Abnormal left ventricular (LV) deformational mechanics have been demonstrated in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) using two-dimensional (2D) speckle tracking echocardiography, but there is not enough information about the four ...
