Myocardial Work: Methodology and Clinical Applications [PDF]
Diagnostics, 2021 A precise and accurate assessment of left ventricular (LV) contractility is of utmost importance in terms of prognosis in most cardiac pathologies. Given the limitations of ejection fraction (EF) and global longitudinal strain (GLS) due to their load ...

Myocardial Work in Echocardiography
Circulation: Cardiovascular Imaging, 2023 Myocardial work is an emerging tool in echocardiography that incorporates left ventricular afterload into global longitudinal strain analysis. Myocardial work correlates with myocardial oxygen consumption, and work efficiency can also be assessed.
