Right atrial deformation through speckle tracking echocardiography and feature tracking CMR

The right atrium (RA) plays a vital role in the electromechanical regulation of the heart. Various invasive and non-invasive techniques have been used to elucidate right atrial structure and function. One such novel technique is speckle-tracking echocardiography (STE). Speckle tracking-derived defor...
