Comparison between two and three-dimensional speckle-tracking echocardiography and cardiac T2* magnetic resonance imaging in ß-thalassemia

Objective: We evaluated the accuracy of two-dimensional speckle-tracking echocardiography (2DSTE) and 3DSTE to identify early cardiac dysfunction in comparison with cardiac T2* magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in patients with blood transfusion-dependent β-Thalassemia. Methods: A total of 48 consecu...
