Abstract 2074: Global systolic Left Ventricular Circumferential and Longitudinal Strain and Strain Rate in Dobutamine Stress Echocardiography

Objective: null Strain (S) and Strain Rate (SR) are new techniques for assessment of systolic function of Left Ventricle (LV). Speckle tracking has been used to assess the segmental S and SR of the LV. Global LV systolic S and SR may be helpful to assess patients with Ischemic Heart Disease (IHD) and Cardiomyopathies. Our objective was to assess the change in global longitudinal and circumferential S and SR during Dobutamine Stress...
