Speckle tracking ultrasonography as a new tool to assess diaphragmatic function: a feasibility study [PDF]
A reliable method of measuring diaphragmatic function at the bedside is still lacking. Widely used two-dimensional (2D) ultrasonographic measurements, such as diaphragm excursion, diaphragm thickness, and fractional thickening (FT) have failed to show ...

Impact of Ischemic Cardiomyopathy on Right Ventricular Function using Speckle Tracking Echocardiography [PDF]
Background: Ischemic cardiomyopathy [ICM] refers to the reduced pumping ability of the heart due to damage of myocardium as a result of ischemia. Thus, early detection of coronary artery disease could save the myocardium.
