Regional Strain and Strain Rate Measurements by Cardiac Ultrasound: Principles, Implementation and Limitations

TL;DR: In this paper, a new ultrasonic method of quantifying regional deformation has been introduced based on the principles of "strain" and'strain rate' imaging, which introduces concepts derived from mechanical engineering which most echocardiographers are not familiar with.
Journal ArticleDOI

Myocardial function defined by strain rate and strain during alterations in inotropic states and heart rate

TL;DR: For normal myocardium, SR(sys) reflects regional contractile function (being relatively independent of HR), whereas epsilon( sys) reflects changes in SV, as measured by stroke volume and contractility.
Journal ArticleDOI

Can natural strain and strain rate quantify regional myocardial deformation? A study in healthy subjects

TL;DR: SR/epsilon imaging appears to be a robust technique for quantifying regional myocardial deformation, and values describing radial deformation were higher than the corresponding SR/ep silon values obtained for longitudinal deformation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Value and limitations of the Duke criteria for the diagnosis of infective endocarditis.

TL;DR: Increasing the diagnostic value of echographic criteria in patients with prior antibiotic therapy and typical echocardiographic findings and considering the serologic diagnosis of Q fever as a major criterion would further improve the clinical diagnosis of IE.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quantification of regional left and right ventricular radial and longitudinal function in healthy children using ultrasound-based strain rate and strain imaging.

TL;DR: Ultrasound-based Strain SR/epsilon imaging is a practical, reproducible clinical technique, which allows the calculation of regional longitudinal and radial deformation from both LV and RV segments.
