Regional Heterogeneity of Systolic Dysfunction Is Associated with Ventricular Dyssynchrony in Patients with Idiopathic Dilated Cardiomyopathy and Narrow QRS Complex
Echocardiography, 08/08/2012
Matsumoto K et al. – 3D speckle–tracking strain revealed that the myocardial systolic dysfunction of idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy (IDC) patients with a narrow QRS complex has a marked heterogeneous regional distribution. This regional heterogeneity as well as systolic dysfunction is thought to lead to LV dyssynchrony.
