Abstract
Background Longitudinal strain of right ventricle ( RV ) can be used to determine RV systolic function. This study compared RV longitudinal strain values of two different speckle tracking software technologies, velocity vector imaging ( VVI ) and two‐dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography (2 DSTE ), and longitudinal strain by cardiac magnetic resonance ( CMR ). Methods We studied 36 patients (28 men, 63 ± 11 years) with ischemic...
