20.500.12556/DiRROS-25040 Myocardial strain imaging theory, current practice, and the future Myocardial strain imaging by echocardiography or cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) is a powerful method to diagnose cardiac disease. Strain imaging provides measures of myocardial shortening, thickening, and lengthening and can be applied to any cardiac chamber. Left ventricular (LV) global longitudinal strain by speckle-tracking echocardiography is the most widely used clinical strain parameter. Several CMR-based modalities are available and are ready to be implemented clinically. Clinical applications of strain include global longitudinal strain as a more sensitive method than ejection fraction for diagnosing mild systolic dysfunction. This applies to patients suspected of having heart failure with normal LV ejection fraction, to early systolic dysfunction in valvular disease, and when monitoring myocardial function during cancer chemotherapy. Segmental LV strain maps provide diagnostic clues in specific cardiomyopathies, when evaluating LV dyssynchrony and ischemic dysfunction. Strain imaging is a promising modality to quantify right ventricular function. Left atrial strain may be used to evaluate LV diastolic function and filling pressure. cardiac magnetic resonance cardiomyopathy myocardial function myocardial work speckle-tracking echocardiography strain magnetna resonanca srca kardiomiopatija srčna funkcija miokardno delo ehokardiografija s sledenjem ultrazvočnega vzorca deformacija true false true Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Neznano 2026-01-08 08:59:58 2026-01-08 08:59:59 2026-01-09 03:52:12 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2025 0 0 Nasl. z nasl. zaslona; Opis vira z dne 8. 1. 2026; str. 340-381 no. 3 Vol. 18 2025 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 616.1 1876-7591 10.1016/j.jcmg.2024.07.011 263854595 RAZ_Smiseth_Otto_A._2025.pdf RAZ_Smiseth_Otto_A._2025.pdf 1 617898248439AC7B7837936A0992E0B0 4243b8dc98fe78a08b3c21ba48127765f84e615cee858eeb4954b50c9fe16c94 26c918c0-ec68-11f0-94a7-001a4af901a5 https://dirros.openscience.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=37576 https://www.jacc.org/doi/10.1016/j.jcmg.2024.07.011 0 35361686-ec68-11f0-94a7-001a4af901a5 https://dirros.openscience.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=37577 Univerzitetni klinični center Ljubljana 0 0 0
