A sonographer's guide to the clinical utility of left ventricular speckle tracking strain

Abstract: Speckle tracking strain (STS) is an advanced echocardiographic modality that is being increasingly implemented as part of the routine clinical echocardiographic assessment. It can overcome many of the limitations of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), as STS also accounts for segmental LV function and detects multi-directional components of myocardial deformation. Furthermore, it is able to detect sub-clinical changes in LV function, which may not be reflected by the LVEF. This may allow more opportunit… Show more
