Evaluation of strain and strain rate parameters using two-dimensional speckle-tracking echocardiography in patients with coronary artery disease (Research Article)
The study aimed was to measure left ventricular (LV) strain using speckle tracking echocardiography (STE) for assessment of LV function. Eighty-two subjects (mean age 57±9 years) with suspected chest pain underwent two-dimensional (2D)-echocardiography before coronary angiography. Conventional echocardiographic parameters were used for the assessment of LV function. Longitudinal strain and its ...

متن کاملAssessment of left atrial function by three-dimensional speckle-tracking in cardiomyopathies: A step forward?
The main role of the left atrium (LA) is to modulate left ventricular filling through its three phasic functions: reservoir, passive conduit, and active contraction. Assessment of left atrial strain is feasible and can be used to categorize diastolic dysfunction. Structural and functional analysis of the LA can reveal a wide range of pathophysiological alterations occurring in response to speci...
متن کاملComparison of three-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography and two-dimensional echocardiography for evaluation of left atrial size and function in healthy volunteers (results from the MAGYAR-Healthy study).
OBJECTIVE Noninvasive accurate assessment of left atrial (LA) size and function is an essential requirement in daily clinical practice. Real time three-dimensional (3D) echocardiography (RT3DE) with direct volumetric method has been found to be a highly accurate and reproducible noninvasive tool for the evaluation of LA dimensions and functional properties. Three-dimensional speckle tracking ec...
متن کاملRight ventricular and right atrial function and deformation in patients with subclinical hypothyroidism: a two- and three-dimensional echocardiographic study.
BACKGROUND We sought to investigate right ventricular (RV) function and deformation assessed by three-dimensional echocardiography (3DE) and speckle tracking in patients with subclinical hypothyroidism (SHT), and to evaluate the influence of levothyroxine (L-T₄) therapy on RV remodeling. METHODS We included 50 untreated women with SHT and 45 healthy control women matched by age. The L-T₄ ther...
