Early Improvement of the Regional and Global Ventricle Function Estimated by Two‐Dimensional Speckle Tracking Echocardiography after Percutaneous Aortic Valve Implantation Speckle Tracking after CoreValve Implantation

Abstract

A new echocardiographic technique, such as 2DSTE, shows a significant early improvement in global and segmental left ventricular systolic function after TAVI, which could not be detected by conventional methods.
