Circumferential 2D-strain imaging for the prediction of long term response to cardiac resynchronization therapy

BACKGROUND: Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy (CRT) leads to hemodynamic and clinical improvement in heart failure patients. The established methods to evaluate myocardial asynchrony analyze longitudinal and radial myocardial function. This study evaluates the new method of circumferential 2D-strain...
