MRI-based strain and strain rate analysis of left ventricle: a modified hierarchical transformation model

BACKGROUND Different from other indicators of cardiac function, such as ejection fraction and transmitral early diastolic velocity, myocardial strain is promising to capture subtle alterations that result from early diseases of the myocardium. In order to extract the left ventricle (LV) myocardial strain and strain rate from cardiac cine-MRI, a modified hierarchical transformation model was pro...

Strain and strain rate analysis of the right ventricle in patients with hypoplastic left heart syndrome

Introduction Assessment of right ventricular (RV) function in patients with hypoplastic heart syndrome (HLHS) is essential, but echocardiographic assessment remains largely subjective and RV volume quantification by CMR is time consuming. Purpose To determine whether software designed for analysis of echocardiograms can be adapted to evaluate strain and strain rate of the RV in CMR images from ...

Longitudinal and circumferential strain rate, left ventricular remodeling, and prognosis after myocardial infarction.

OBJECTIVES We sought to investigate the clinical prognostic value of longitudinal and circumferential strain (S) and strain rate (SR) in patients after high-risk myocardial infarction (MI). BACKGROUND Left ventricular (LV) contractile performance after MI is an important predictor of long-term outcome. Tissue deformation imaging might more closely reflect myocardial contractility than traditi...
