Abstract

Noninvasive and reproducible quantification of myocardial function is essential for the evaluation of various cardiac chambers especially the left ventricle (LV), the right ventricle (RV) and the left atrium (LA). Various modalities are used for strain and strain rate imaging such as 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional echocardiography (2D/3D echo), cardiac MRI and multislice computed tomography (CT). The three types of strains are longitudinal strain (LS), circumferential strain (CS), and radial strain (RS). In this chapter various strain imaging are discussed along with myocardial architecture, rotational mechanics, procedure and technique. The clinical applications of strain imaging are myocardial diseases, diabetes, coronary artery disease, heart failure (HF) syndromes, etc. The limitations of strain imaging include image quality, heart rates, reproducibility and vendor variability.
