The implementation of speckle tracking echocardiography for cardiac resynchronization therapy optimisation. A rotational myocardial mechanics interpretation
Additional CRT optimisation via changing the temporal activation of ventricular electrodes is beneficial for left ventricular performance in heart failure patients. The success of biventricular pacing may also be explained by the improvement of left ventricular rotational mechanics.
