Role of tissue Doppler imaging in predicting left ventricular dysfunction after myocardial infarction
Left ventricular (LV) dysfunction is a well known complication following ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) is used as a non-invasive method to assess LV diastolic function. Measurements obtained from TDI augment the prognostic information of clinical ri...
