Alterations in transmural myocardial strain: an early marker of left ventricular dysfunction in mitral regurgitation?
Circulation. 2008; (14 Suppl): S256-62
In asymptomatic patients with severe isolated mitral regurgitation (MR), identifying the onset of early left ventricular (LV) dysfunction can guide the timing of surgical intervention. We hypothesized that changes in LV transmural myocardial strain represent an early marker of LV dysfunction in an ovine chronic MR model.
