Speckle tracking strain analysis echocardiography can evaluate the LA mechanical dyssynchrony quantitatively. The severity of LA mechanical dyssynchrony by VVI can predict the outcome of PVI catheter ablation for paroxysmal AF.
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.
