Are echocardiographic parameters of diastolic function reproducible in a population-based cohort?
Echocardiographic assessment of diastolic function is highly reproducible, supporting its use as a reliable clinical and research tool.
In this validation study within the STANISLAS cohort, diastolic function echocardiographic parameters were found to be highly reproducible. Diastolic dysfunction consequently appears as a highly effective clinical and research tool.
Frikha et al. (Wed,) studied this question.
