Strain-based discoordination imaging during exercise in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction: Feasibility and reproducibility

Abstract Purpose Various parameters of mechanical dyssynchrony have been proposed to improve patient selection criteria for cardiac resynchronization therapy, but sensitivity and specificity are lacking. However, echocardiographic parameters are consistently investigated at rest, whereas heart failu...
