Direct comparison of echocardiography speckle tracking and cardiac magnetic resonance feature tracking for quantification of right ventricular strain: a prospective intermodality study in functional mitral regurgitation

Abstract Background Functional mitral regurgitation (FMR) is a known risk factor for right ventricular dysfunction (RVDYS). RV global longitudinal strain (GLS) is an emerging index of RV function; however, the magnitude of agreement between RV GLS by echocardiography (echo) and cardiac magnetic reso...
