Global Longitudinal Strain in Wellens’ Syndrome

Journal of Cardiovascular Echography, 2022
We present the case of a young man with “noncardiac” chest pain, subsequently diagnosed as Wellens’ syndrome. We report the early changes in left ventricular global longitudinal strain imaging findings in these patients despite preserved ejection fraction, and review the features associated with this stereotypical cardiac ...

Assessment of Myocardial Mechanics in Acute Rheumatic Fever Using Speckle-Tracking Echocardiography

Anatolian Journal of Cardiology, 2023
Background: This study aims to evaluate the role of speckle-tracking echocardiography to identify myocardial deformation in acute rheumatic fever. Methods: Twenty-seven patients and 27 healthy children were prospectively evaluated. The patient group was

Global Longitudinal Strain as Predictor of Chemotherapy-Induced Cardiotoxicity [PDF]

ABC Imagem Cardiovascular, 2021
Background: Chemotherapy-induced cardiotoxicity (ChC) is an important complication among patients receiving anthracyclines. Biomarkers and imaging parameters have been studied for their ability to identify patients at risk of developing ChC. Left ventricular global longitudinal strain (LV-GLS) is a sensitive parameter for detecting systolic dysfunction

Role of Strain Imaging for Guiding Management of Valvular Heart Disease: Current Status

Journal of the Indian Academy of Echocardiography & Cardiovascular Imaging, 2021
Echocardiographic strain imaging allows more precise evaluation of cardiac function and provides new insights into the complex cardiac mechanics. Global longitudinal strain is found to be clinically useful in various valvular heart diseases.

Quantification of biventricular myocardial function using cardiac magnetic resonance feature tracking, endocardial border delineation and echocardiographic speckle tracking in patients with repaired tetralogy of fallot and healthy controls [PDF]

, 2013
Background: Parameters of myocardial deformation have been suggested to be superior to conventional measures of ventricular function in patients with tetralogy of Fallot (ToF), but have required non-routine, tagged cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR)

Three-dimensional echocardiography and 2D-3D speckle tracking imaging in chronic pulmonary hypertension. diagnostic accuracy in detecting hemodynamic signs of RV failure [PDF]

, 2015
Background and objective. Our aim was to compare three-dimensional (3D) and 2D and 3D speckle tracking (2D-STE, 3D-STE) echocardiographic parameters with conventional right ventricular (RV) indexes in patients with chronic pulmonary hypertension (PH ...

Myocardial strain in healthy adults across a broad age range as revealed by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging at 1.5 and 3.0T: associations of myocardial strain with myocardial region, age, and sex [PDF]

, 2016
Purpose: We assessed myocardial strain using cine displacement encoding with stimulated echoes (DENSE) using 1.5T and 3.0T MRI in healthy adults. Materials and Methods: Healthy adults without any history of cardiovascular disease underwent MRI at 1.5T ...

Global longitudinal strain differentiates physiological hypertrophy from maladaptive remodeling

IJC Heart & Vasculature, 2022
Differentiation of left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy in healthy athletes from pathological LV hypertrophy in heart disease is often difficult. We explored whether extended echocardiographic measurements such as E/e' and global longitudinal strain (GLS) distinguish physiologic from maladaptive hypertrophy in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, excessively ...
