Abstract

Reference values of left ventricular mechanical dispersion assessed by two-dimensional longitudinal speckle-tracking strain in normal subjects

David Maisuradze* and Kistauri A

Left ventricular mechanical dispersion measured by two dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography (MD) is a novel strain derived parameter that reflects temporal cardiac contraction heterogeneity and has consequently gained attention as a predictor of increased arrhythmic risk in selected cardiac diseases.
