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

Longitudinal Strain and Sudden Cardiac Death
Several cardiac conditions are associated with the risk of ventricular arrhythmias (VAs) and sudden cardiac death (SCD). Identification of the individuals at increased risk of these events is essential to facilitate the appropriate measures to prevent ...

Role of Strain Imaging in Ischemic Heart Disease
The potential utility of strain imaging as a tool for quantitative assessment of myocardial contractile function has already been demonstrated in many cardiac conditions. Numerous studies have explored its utility in patients with coronary artery disease

Myocardial strain changes over a 1-month follow-up in Takotsubo syndrome: a case report
Among various diagnostic methods, echocardiography (EchoCG) is most often used to identify Takotsubo syndrome. Left ventricular apical ballooning and the absence of permanent local contractility disturbances makes it possible to confirm the diagnosis ...
