value of global longitudinal peak systolic strain derived by 2-d speckle tracking in detection of obstructive coronary artery disease

Document Type : Abstracts

Abstract

Non-invasive identification of patients with coronary
artery disease (CAD) remains a clinical challenge
despite the widespread use of imaging and
provocative tests and Speckle tracking
echocardiography has been validated for assessment
of global and regional left ventricular myocardial
function which is affected in patients with obstructive
CAD
