Left atrial mechanical functions in chronic primary mitral regurgitation patients: a velocity vector imaging-based study

INTRODUCTION: Assessment of the left atrium (LA) mechanical function provides further information on the level of cardiac compensation. We aimed to evaluate LA function using a strain imaging method: velocity vector imaging (VVI) in chronic primary mitral regurgitation (MR). MATERIAL AND METHODS: We...
