Optimal risk assessment for primary prevention remains highly challenging. Recent
registries have highlighted major discrepancies between guidelines and daily practice …

This study aims to assess the usefulness of strain‐encoded magnetic resonance (SENC) for
the quantification of myocardial deformation ('strain') in healthy volunteers and for the …

Objectives This study investigated the association of cardiovascular cardiac magnetic
resonance (CMR) feature tracking (FT) with outcome in a patient cohort with myocarditis and …

Background: The high accuracy of feature-tracking cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR)
imaging qualifies this novel modality as potential gold standard for myocardial strain …

Background Assessment of subclinical myocardial dysfunction by using feature tracking has
shown promise in prognosis evaluation of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction …

Objectives The goal of this study was to evaluate the prognostic value of global longitudinal
strain (GLS) derived from cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) feature-tracking in a large …

Background Left atrial (LA) dysfunction is associated with morbidity and mortality. To the
knowledge of the authors, the relationship of LA strain to long-term prognosis in participants …

Background In heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), echocardiographic
studies suggest that global longitudinal strain (GLS) has an impact on survival. Feature …

Background: Left ventricular (LV) global longitudinal strain has demonstrated incremental
prognostic value over LV ejection fraction in patients with ST-segment–elevation myocardial …

Cardiovascular diseases represent the leading cause of mortality and morbidity in the
western world. Assessment of cardiac function is pivotal for early diagnosis of primitive …
