Two-Dimensional Speckle Tracking Strain Analysis for Efficacy Assessment of Myocardial Cell Therapy
The subtle effects of transplanted bone marrow cells (BMC) on regional myocardial behavior in patients with ischemic heart disease are difficult to assess. Novel echocardiographic techniques can quantify regional myocardial deformation (strain) and distinguish between passive and active wall motion....
