Speckle tracking echocardiography in heart failure: longitudinal left atrial, left ventricular and left atrio-ventricular strain in patients stratified for different values of ejection fraction
A novel technique to calculate the real value of the left ventricular ejection fraction based on volume changes of the left ventricular myocardial segments
Speaker:
Associate Professor M. Karvandi (Tehran, IR)
Do 2D speckle tracking indices have sufficient reproducibility to be used in clinical practice when image acquisition and severity of left ventricular dysfunction are taken into account?
