Mechanical dispersion combined with global longitudinal strain estimated by three dimensional speckle tracking in patients with ST elevation myocardial infarction

Background: The role of left ventricular (LV) mechanical dispersion estimated after an ST elevation acute myocardial infarction (STEMI) remains unclear. Methods: The study participants were 208 consecutive patients (152 men, age = 72 years) presenting with STEMI for the first time who underwent prim...
