Left Ventricular Untwisting Rate by Speckle Tracking Echocardiography [PDF]
Circulation, 2007 Background— Recent studies validated the measurement of left ventricular (LV) untwisting rate (UR) by speckle tracking echocardiography. A few reports suggest that it may provide additional noninvasive insight into LV diastolic function.

Non-compaction cardiomyopathy – brief review [PDF]
, 2017 Left ventricular non-compaction cardiomyopathy is a genetic disorder characterized by the presence of two myocardial layers with numerous prominent trabeculations and deep inter-trabecular recesses that communicate with the ventricular cavity.

Speckle-tracking echocardiography combined with imaging mass spectrometry assesses region-dependent alterations [PDF]
, 2020 Left ventricular (LV) contraction is characterized by shortening and thickening of longitudinal and circumferential fibres. To date, it is poorly understood how LV deformation is altered in the pathogenesis of streptozotocin (STZ)-induced type 1 diabetes

3D-based strain analysis and cardiotoxicity detection in cancer patients received chemotherapy
BMC Cancer, 2023 Background Chemotherapy-induced cardiotoxicity has become a prevalent complication. Regular monitoring of patients who received chemotherapy using 3D strain parameters may aid in early detection of myocardial damage and its prevention.

Speckle tracking exercise stress echocardiography
Cardiologia Croatica, 2013 We used 2D strain measurement to quantify segmental systolic function during exercise stress echocardiography in 12 pts with AP and positive/borderline ECG stress test (Group 1) and in 14 pts without AP and with negative ECG stress test (Group 2). 2D-strain was obtained in parasternal short axis view and in the three apical views at rest and immediate ...

Evaluation of right ventricular function performed by 3d-echocardiography in scleroderma patients [PDF]
, 2015 The impairment of the right ventricle (RV) in systemic sclerosis (SSc) is usually related to pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). New echocardiographic techniques, such as 3-dimensional echocardiography (3DE) and 2-dimensional speckle tracking (2DSTE),

Early and late systolic wall stress differentially relate to myocardial contraction and relaxation in middle-aged adults: the Asklepios study [PDF]
, 2013 Experimental studies implicate late systolic load as a determinant of impaired left ventricular (LV) relaxation. We aimed to assess the relationship between the myocardial loading sequence and left ventricular (LV) contraction and relaxation.

Prognostic implications of left ventricular global longitudinal strain in heart failure patients with narrow QRS complex treated with cardiac resynchronization therapy: a subanalysis of the randomized EchoCRT trial [PDF]
, 2016 Aim: Left ventricular (LV) global longitudinal strain (GLS) reflects LV systolic function and correlates inversely with the extent of LV myocardial scar and fibrosis.
