DOI: 10.1093/eurheartj/ehz748.0930
Abstract: Left ventricular (LV) deformation is dependent on mechanical load and does not reflect directly the myocardial energy consumption. Thus, measurement of global and regional myocardial work might be alternative and complementary methods for the assessment… read more here.
