Deformation-tracking may enable reproducible strain assessment on standard cine CMR; leaves open prospective validation before replacing dedicated sequences.
Does deformation-tracking using CMR cine imaging provide comparable diagnostic performance for circumferential strain assessment compared to DENSE and feature-tracking in healthy adults?
Deformation-tracking using standard CMR cine imaging provides reproducible circumferential strain assessment comparable to DENSE, potentially eliminating the need for additional bespoke strain sequences and reducing scan time.
