TLDR
The new SDE approach might be a more accurate marker than TDE for detecting systolic regional myocardial dysfunction induced by LAD occlusion and reduced velocities in all septal segments during angioplasty.

Global Left Ventricular Myocardial Work Efficiency in Healthy Individuals and Patients with Cardiovascular Disease

TL;DR: While global LV myocardial work efficiency was similar in normal individuals and in those with CV risk factors, it was decreased in postinfarct and HFrEF patients.

The impact of hypertension and hypertension-related left ventricle hypertrophy on right ventricle function

TL;DR: It is demontrates that besides the manifest morphologic LV adaptations, significant RV functional alterations can be determined by TDI and strain/strain rate imaging in patients arterial hypertension.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tissue Doppler imaging for predicting outcome in patients with cardiovascular disease.

TL;DR: Tissue Doppler imaging is a powerful new echocardiographic tool that is now becoming the standard for assessing ventricular function in a variety of situations and diseases.

Quantification of regional right and left ventricular function by ultrasonic strain rate and strain indexes in Friedreich’s ataxia

TL;DR: In this prospective study, a high prevalence of BAV was observed in patients with DAR and factors related to BAV were age 2 of these variables in a patient identified BAV with a high degree of accuracy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Non-dippers are associated with adverse cardiac remodeling and dysfunction (R1)

TL;DR: The non-dippers in treated hypertensive patients were associated with adverse cardiac remodeling and early LV dysfunction and further studies to demonstrate the long term prognostic significance of this finding is warranted.

Myocardial Strain by Doppler Echocardiography Validation of a New Method to Quantify Regional Myocardial Function

TL;DR: Myocardial strain by Doppler echocardiography may represent a new, powerful method for quantifying regional myocardial function and is less influenced by tethering effects than Dopplers tissue imaging.
Journal ArticleDOI

Real-time strain rate imaging of the left ventricle by ultrasound

TL;DR: In the healthy hearts, a spatially homogeneous distribution of the strain rate was found and all the infarcted areas in this study showed up as hypokinetic or akinetic, demonstrating that this method may be used for imaging of regional dysfunction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Color Doppler myocardial imaging: a new technique for the assessment of myocardial function

TL;DR: The concomitant enhancement of the myocardial Doppler signal after an intravenous injection of a transpulmonary echocardiographic contrast agent could permit the noninvasive assessment of regional myocardIAL perfusion.
