Abstract:The potential utility of strain imaging as a tool for quantitative assessment of myocardial contractile function has already been demonstrated in many cardiac conditions. Numerous studies have explored its utility in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) also. Almost the entire spectrum of CAD has been studied and several different strain parameters and indices derived from global or regional longitudinal, circumferential, radial and area strain as well as left ventricular rotation have been employed.
