Myocardial strain-curve deformation patterns after Fontan operation

Abstract Myocardial deformation analysis by cardiac MRI (CMR) yielding global circumferential and longitudinal strain (GCS and GLS) is an increasingly utilized method to accurately quantify systolic function and predict clinical events in patients with Fontan circulation. The purpose of this study w...
