The RV and LV longitudinal displacement fractional shortening can be computed from 2-dimensional images of the 4-chamber view and correlated with global strain. The longitudinal displacement fractional shortening was significantly greater for the RV than the LV and was abnormal in fetuses with RV and LV cardiac abnormalities.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
