Longitudinal strain is an early marker of left ventricular (LV) dysfunction in several cardiac diseases. Our aim was to differentiate cardiac amyloidosis (CA) at diagnosis from hypertensive LV hypertrophy (LVH) by analysis of longitudinal myocardial deformation.

Abstract
Longitudinal strain is an early marker of left ventricular (LV) dysfunction in several cardiac diseases. Our aim was to differentiate cardiac amyloidosis (CA) at diagnosis from hypertensive LV hypertrophy (LVH) by analysis of longitudinal myocardial deformation.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
