Investigation Into the Utility of 3D Speckle‐Tracking Echocardiography in Detecting Coronary Artery Microcirculation Dysfunction in Ischemia With Non‐Obstructive Coronary Artery Disease

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
By detecting the subtle regional contractile dysfunction, 3D‐STE can efficiently distinguish CMCD and present a novel strategy for diagnosing INOCA. ABSTRACT Aim To assess the utility of three‐dimensional speckle‐tracking echocardiography (3D‐STE) in detecting coronary artery microcirculation dysfunction (CMCD) with non‐obstructive coronary artery ...
