Tissue Doppler and strain imaging: anything left in the echo-lab?
Medline research indicates that an increasing number of manuscripts have been published in the last decade claiming, the feasibility and the potential clinical role of tissue Doppler and strain/strain rate imaging. However, despite this amount of scientific evidence, these technologies are still confined to dedicated, high-tech, research-oriented echocardiography laboratories. In this review we...
متن کاملEchocardiographic Assessment of Left Ventricle Torsion by Tissue Doppler and Velocity Vector Imaging
Introduction Left ventricular (LV) twist is believed to store potential energy and plays an important role in generating diastolic suction. Recent advances in echocardiography techniques have allowed quantification of LV twist. The aim of the present study was to compare LV twist and torsion in healthy human subjects determined by velocity vector imaging (VVI) and tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) a...
متن کاملTissue Doppler and strain imaging of left ventricle in Beagle dogs with iatrogenic hypercortisolism
Changes in radial and longitudinal left ventricular (LV) function were investigated in beagles with iatrogenic hypercortisolism. A total of 11 normal dogs were used, and 2 mg/kg prednisone was administered per oral q12 h for 28 days to 7 out of 11 dogs to induce iatrogenic hypercortisolism. Body weight, blood pressure, conventional echocardiography and tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) of normal and...
متن کاملComparison of apical left ventricular segments strain imaging by tissue Doppler and speckle tracking echocardiography.
BACKGROUND Spatial orientation of left ventricular (LV) apical segments is a potential limitation to assessment by tissue Doppler echocardiography (TDE). Speckle tracking echocardiography (STE) is a recently developed quantification technique and has the advantage of being angle-independent as compared to TDE. AIM To assess matching apical segments' longitudinal strain data from TDE and STE. ...
متن کاملEffect of preload on left atrial function: evaluated by tissue Doppler and strain imaging.
AIMS Both strain and strain rate (SR) measure the regional myocardial deformation and can assess phasic left atrial (LA) function. However, there is still a lack of evidence for their volume independency. In this study, strain and SR determined by tissue Doppler imaging were used to evaluate the effect of preload reduction in end-stage renal disease patients who were undergoing regular haemodia...
