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.

Assessment of regional wall motion by strain Doppler during biventricular pacing in patients with conventional indications for a pacemaker.

TL;DR: Strain Doppler imaging is useful to predict the efficacy of biventricular pacing in patients with conventional indications for a pacemaker with severe congestive heart failure, and SDI is useful for measuring regional myocardial deformation.

Strain echocardiography improves prediction of arrhythmic events in ischemic and non-ischemic dilated cardiomyopathy.

TL;DR: In this article, a prospective multi-center follow-up study consecutively included ICM and ischemic cardiomyopathy (ICM) patients with left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was conducted to investigate if etiology of heart failure and strain echocardiography can improve risk stratification of life threatening ventricular arrhythmia (VA) in heart failure patients.

Interpretation of Left Ventricular Wall Motion During Stress Testing

TL;DR: The obstacles to stress echocardiographic interpretation are described, and the techniques currently available that offer a more objective approach to stress wall motion analysis than the conventional visual methodology are reviewed.

Statistical methods for assessing agreement between two methods of clinical measurement.

TL;DR: An alternative approach, based on graphical techniques and simple calculations, is described, together with the relation between this analysis and the assessment of repeatability.

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.

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.
