Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance derived Myocardial Strain: Applications, Acquisition Techniques, Analysis, and Reporting. A Scientific Statement of the Society for Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance, Radiological Society of North America, and European Association of Cardiovascular Imaging of the ES
Myocardial strain imaging enables quantification of cardiac deformation. Cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) is well suited for strain assessment due to the ability to image in any given plane with high spatial and contrast resolution. CMR strain measures have incremental diagnostic and prognostic utility o...
