Role of speckle tracking echocardiography in patients with myocardial infarction
All over the world cardiovascular diseases are one of the main reason of morbidity and mortality in the structure of non-communicable diseases, and myocardial infarction has a leading role.

Left ventricular systolic function evaluated by strain echocardiography and relationship with mortality in patients with severe sepsis or septic shock. a systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]
Sepsis-induced myocardial dysfunction is associated with poor outcomes, but traditional measurements of systolic function such as left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) do not directly correlate with prognosis.

Early diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases in workers: role of standard and advanced echocardiography [PDF]
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) still remains the main cause of morbidity and mortality and consequently early diagnosis is of paramount importance. Working conditions can be regarded as an additional risk factor for CVD. Since different aspects of the job

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 ...

3D-based strain analysis and cardiotoxicity detection in cancer patients received chemotherapy
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.

Changes in left atrial deformation in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: Evaluation by vector velocity imaging. [PDF]
OBJECTIVES: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) represents a generalized myopathic process affecting both ventricular and atrial myocardium. We assessed the global and regional left atrial (LA) function and its relation to left ventricular (LV) mechanics ...

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 ...
