May refine CRT selection; leaves open routine adoption pending prospective trials.
Vitarelli et al. (2007) conducted a review in moderate-to-severe chronic systolic heart failure and ventricular dyssynchrony. Tissue Doppler Imaging was evaluated. Tissue Doppler Imaging may play an important role in the selection of patients and optimization of cardiac resynchronization therapy for chronic systolic heart failure.
