Background The strain imaging diastolic index (SI-DI) was reported to be a sensitive marker of regional left ventricular (LV) delayed relaxation induced by ischemia. However, the clinical usefulness of the global SI-DI has not been evaluated. N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) is a sensitive biomarker for the detection of asymptomatic diastolic LV dysfunction. This study investigated...
Background: Global longitudinal strain (GLS) measured by two‐dimensional speckle tracking imaging (2D‐STI) has been shown to be useful for assessing subtle change in left ventricular function in severe aortic stenosis (AS) patients with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). However, there is little information about the relation between the progression of AS and changes in GLS. The...
