Prediction of Response to Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy by Speckle Tracking Echocardiography Using Different Software Approaches
Journal of The American Society of Echocardiography, 06/11/09

Tanaka H et al. - Radial strain dyssynchrony analyses by 3 different speckle-tracking software programs were similarly able to predict EF response to CRT. Although variability in absolute values of dyssynchrony was observed, there was close agreement for determining the presence or absence of significant dyssynchrony. Speckle-tracking echocardiography has potential as a means to quantify dyssynchrony in a multicenter clinical trial or clinical practice.
