Excerpt

Current morphologic left ventricular (LV) non-compaction (LVNC) criteria seem to be still insufficient. The prevalence of borderline degree of LV hypertrabeculation is far more frequent than initially expected. LV twist and strain values are proposed as potential new functional parameters supplementing the classic morphologic LVNC criteria. The aim of this study was to assess diagnostic utility of LV twist and strain analysis in detecting regional myocardial dysfunction in patients with LVNC. …
