Role of Speckle Tracking Echocardiography in Dilated Cardiomyopathy: A Review [PDF]
Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is an important cause of the heart failure. Timely diagnosis and optimal management decrease morbidity and mortality in heart failure patients. Although transthoracic echocardiography is used as the diagnostic test of choice in these patients, new modalities like speckle tracking echocardiography (STE) have promising ...

Abstract Objective This study aimed to evaluate the utility of left atrial volume and function in uraemic patients using four‐dimensional automatic left atrial quantification (4D auto LAQ) technology. Methods Thirty‐four undialysed uraemic patients (U‐ND group), 60 dialysed uraemic patients (U‐D group), and 32 healthy volunteers (N group) were enrolled

Speckle Tracking Echocardiography in Hypertensive Pregnancy Disorders: A Systematic Review
Importance Hypertensive pregnancy disorders (HPDs) are associated with an increased risk of long-term cardiovascular disease. Speckle tracking echocardiography (STE) might be useful in the early detection of preclinical cardiac changes in women with HPDs.

Speckle tracking exercise stress echocardiography
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 ...

Left Ventricular Untwisting Rate by Speckle Tracking Echocardiography [PDF]
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.

Early diagnosis of cardiac involvement in systemic lupus erythematosus via global longitudinal strain (GLS) by speckle tracking echocardiography [PDF]
Introduction: Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) myocarditis occurs in between 5% and 10% of patients with lupus. Global longitudinal strain (GLS) via speckle tracking echocardiography can detect cardiac involvement in patients suffering from SLE.

ABSTRACT Purpose Left ventricular (LV) strain is an early indicator of myocardial dysfunction. However, conventional strain metrics do not fully account for the multidirectional nature of myocardial deformation. The strain rate tensor, derived from velocity‐encoded MRI, represents the time‐resolved magnitude and direction of strain rate without the ...
