Journal ArticleDOI
Morphological and functional adaptation of the maternal heart during pregnancy.
Oana Savu,Ruxandra Jurcuţ,Sorin Giusca,Tim Van Mieghem,Ilinca Gussi,Bogdan A. Popescu,Carmen Ginghina,Frank Rademakers,Jan Deprest,Jens-Uwe Voigt +9 more
TL;DR: Pregnancy is a physiological process associated with increased cardiac performance and progressive LV remodeling, not directly reflected by parameters traditionally considered to describe systolic function, such as ejection fraction and longitudinal deformation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessment of regional longitudinal myocardial strain rate derived from Doppler myocardial imaging indexes in normal and infarcted myocardium.
Jens-Uwe Voigt,Martina F. Arnold,Matts Karlsson,Leila Hübbert,Tomasz Kukulski,Liv Hatle,George R. Sutherland +6 more
TL;DR: New myocardial deformation indexes were shown to quantitatively describe the function of normal and chronically infarcted regions and showed the most pronounced reduction (hypokinetic and akinetic) or even inversion in Dyskinetic segments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Echocardiographic reference ranges for normal cardiac Doppler data: results from the NORRE Study

Oliva,Andreas Hagendorff,Krasimira Hristova,Teresa López,Julien Magne,Christophe Martinez,Gonzalo de la Morena,Bogdan A.

Lang,Luigi P. Badano,Patrizio Lancellotti +30 more
TL;DR: The NORRE study provides the reference values for the most useful Doppler parameters in the evaluation of heart physiology and highlights the need of using age-specific reference values especially for the diagnosis of LV systolic and diastolic dysfunction and for the estimation of LV filling pressures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Deformation imaging describes right ventricular function better than longitudinal displacement of the tricuspid ring
Sorin Giusca,Virginia Dambrauskaite,Chris Scheurwegs,Jan D'hooge,Piet Claus,Lieven Herbots,Michael Magro,Frank Rademakers,Bart Meyns,Marion Delcroix,Jens-Uwe Voigt +10 more
TL;DR: Motion independent deformation parameters appear superior in the accurate description of regional RV function in patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension before and after pulmonary endarterectomy (PEA).
Journal ArticleDOI
Strain Rate Imaging Detects Early Cardiac Effects of Pegylated Liposomal Doxorubicin as Adjuvant Therapy in Elderly Patients with Breast Cancer
Ruxandra Jurcut,Hans Wildiers,Javier Ganame,Jan D'hooge,Julie De Backer,Hannelore Denys,Robert Paridaens,Frank Rademakers,Jens-Uwe Voigt +8 more
TL;DR: Doppler-based myocardial deformation imaging should be used for cardiac function monitoring during chemotherapy, after detecting subtle changes in longitudinal and radial left ventricular function after 6 cycles of PL-DOX.
