Abstract

The advent of strain and strain rate imaging in clinical echocardiography prompted an examination of proper techniques for image acquisition and analysis. For this promising and relatively new method of assessing myocardial performance to be successful in diagnostic echocardiography, close adherence to a standardized method is imperative. This article provides the echocardiographer with a step-by-step approach.
