Is fast-SENC derived myocardial strain using cardiac MRI a reproducible method for assessing left ventricular functional performance?
Fast-SENC derived myocardial strain using cardiac MRI provides a highly reproducible method for assessing left ventricular functional performance.
Giuşcă et al. (2018) conducted an observational in Heart failure and healthy volunteers (n=18). fast-SENC cardiac magnetic resonance imaging was evaluated on Interstudy reproducibility (Intraclass correlation coefficient) for Global Longitudinal Strain (95% CI 0.84 to 0.98). Fast-SENC cardiac magnetic resonance imaging provided highly reproducible measurements of left ventricular global longitudinal strain (ICC 0.94) and global circumferential strain (ICC 0.95) between studies.
