Comparative Myocardial Deformation in 3 Myocardial Layers in Mice by Speckle Tracking Echocardiography
Background. Speckle tracking echocardiography (STE) using dedicated high-resolution ultrasound is a relatively new technique that is useful in assessing myocardial deformation in 3 myocardial layers in small animals. However, comparative studies of STE parameters acquired from murine are limited. Me...
