Two-dimentional speckle tracking strain imaging in the assessment of myocardial diastolic function in patients with stable angina pectoris [PDF]
Introduction: Ischemic heart disease is caused mainly by obstruction of coronary arteries. The ischemic assessment through echocardiography is dependent on wall motion abnormality detection during systole.

The inferior myocardial infarctions (MI) of left ventricle (LV) are often complicated with right ventricle (RV) involvement. The traditional echocardiographic parameters lack diagnostic accuracy in assessment of RV function.

Cardiac Mechanics Evaluated by Speckle Tracking Echocardiography
Natural myocardial markers, or speckles, originated from constructive and destructive interference of ultrasound in the tissues may provide early diagnosis of myocardial changes and be used in the prediction of some cardiac events. Due to its relatively temporal stability, speckles can be tracked by dedicated software along the cardiac cycle, enabling ...

Myocarditis successfully diagnosed and controlled with speckle tracking echocardiography [PDF]
Abstract Background Speckle tracking echocardiography (STE) is an objective, well-validated and reproducible technique of assessing left ventricular longitudinal deformation; it also offers a more sensitive assessment of myocardial contractility than widely used visual estimation.

Assessment of Heart Failure with Preserved Systolic Function Using Two-dimension Speckle Tracking Echocardiography [PDF]
Background: Heart failure (HF) is characterised as a multifaceted clinical condition linked to either a functional or structuralreduction in ventricular blood filling or ejection capability.

Speckle tracking echocardiography in acute lupus myocarditis: comparison to conventional echocardiography [PDF]
Aims Lupus myocarditis occurs in 5–10% of patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). No single feature is diagnostic of lupus myocarditis. Speckle tracking echocardiography (STE) can detect subclinical left ventricular dysfunction in SLE patients, with limited research on its utility in clinical lupus myocarditis. We report on STE in comparison

Three-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography.
Speckle tracking echocardiography (STE) was popularized in the first decade of this century. Analysis of cardiac mechanics has been the focus of ultrasonics, and the breakthrough came with STE. Beyond analysis solely of left ventricular ejection fraction, STE allows the assessment of various pathophysiologies, including myocardial layer-specific ...
