Normal and shear strains of the left ventricle in healthy human subjects measured by two-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography

BACKGROUND: Animal studies have shown that shear deformation of myocardial sheets in transmural planes of left ventricular (LV) wall is an important mechanism for systolic wall thickening, and normal and shear strains of the LV free wall differ from those of the interventricular septum (IVS). We sou...
