Comparison of strain parameters in dyssynchronous heart failure between speckle tracking echocardiography vendor systems

Comparison of strain parameters in dyssynchronous heart failure between speckle tracking echocardiography vendor systems

Abstract Background Although mechanical dyssynchrony parameters derived by speckle tracking echocardiography (STE) may predict response to cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT), comparability of parameters derived with different STE vendors is unknown. Methods In the MARC study, echocardiographic...
