Feasibility of tissue-tracking mitral annular displacement in single four-chamber view as a simple index of left ventricular longitudinal deformation

ConclusionsTMAD using speckle-tracking echocardiography quickly estimated from single apical four-chamber view can be used as a simple index for detection of impaired LV longitudinal deformation in patients with and without preserved EF.
