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.

Myocardial Strain Imaging is a Superior Method for Evaluating Papillry Muscle Contractility in Patients With Myocardial Infarction

TL;DR: The results suggest that myocardial strain imaging is more sensitive and accurate for determining PM contractility compared to tissue velocity imaging.

Early prediction of ventricular functional recovery after myocardial infarction by longitudinal strain study

TL;DR: It is observed that early longitudinal LV strain afterSTEMI is a predictor of during first 2 months after STEMI, which is a useful method to predict early LV recovery after STEMi.
Journal ArticleDOI

Global longitudinal strain from resting echocardiogram is associated with long-term adverse cardiac outcomes in patients with suspected coronary artery disease.

TL;DR: GLS may be a better predictor of long-term major adverse cardiac events, readmissions and repeat cardiac testing than WMSI in patients undergoing stress echocardiography.

Transthoracic ultrasonic tissue indices identify patients with severe left anterior descending artery stenosis. Correlation with fractional flow reserve. Pilot study.

TL;DR: Systolic velocities, strain, and strain rate measured in basal, middle, and apical segments of the anterior left ventricular (LV) wall were lower when compared to those obtained from the corresponding, i.e. unaffected, inferior LV wall.
Journal ArticleDOI

Multi-organ Evaluation of Perfusion and Congestion Using Ultrasound in Patients with Shock.

TL;DR: In this article , a review summarizes the ultrasonographic parameters that have shown evidence in literature in the diagnostic/therapeutic pathway to define the congestion/perfusion profile of the organs that are involved in the pathophysiological cascade of cardiocirculatory shock.

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.
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.
