Key result
Two-dimensional strain echocardiography provides objective measurement of myocardial deformation, enabling early detection of cardiovascular diseases and prognostic evaluation independently of LVEF.
Why the study?
Although strain echocardiography objectively measures intrinsic myocardial function, many cardiologists who are not imaging specialists remain unaware of its clinical use and importance.

May aid early detection beyond LVEF in practice; leaves open need for prospective trials to confirm outcome impact.
Two-dimensional strain echocardiography provides objective and accurate information about intrinsic myocardial function, offering clinical utility beyond traditional LVEF measurement.
Jae‐Hyeong Park (2019) conducted a review in Cardiovascular diseases. 2-dimensional strain echocardiography (2DSTE) vs. Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was evaluated. Two-dimensional strain echocardiography provides objective measurement of myocardial deformation, enabling early detection of cardiovascular diseases and prognostic evaluation independently of LVEF.
