Global Longitudinal Strain: A practical Step-by-Step Approach to Longitudinal Strain Imaging
Global longitudinal strain imaging of the left ventricle is a simple bedside modality for objectively assessing the global and regional function of the major pumping chamber of the heart, the left ventricle. Currently available echo machines provide good
