Evaluation of right ventricular functions in patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy by speckle-tracking echocardiography
When standard RV measures are normal in patients with ICM, RV systolic strain analysis offers an incremental utility to detect subtle abnormalities in RV function, especially in resource-constrained settings where cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) is not practical.
