The value of left ventricular strain–volume loops in predicting response to cardiac resynchronization therapy

Abstract Background Three-dimensional (3D) speckle tracking imaging (STI) allows the simultaneous assessment of left ventricular (LV) strain and volume. We aim to explore the value of LV strain–volume loops in predicting response to cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). Methods Forty heart failur...
