Excerpt

We read the article “The value of speckle-tracking echocardiography in identifying right heart dysfunction in patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension” by Li et al. [1], published in Int J Cardiovasc Imaging (2018) and wish to commend the authors on performing this valuable study on this rare, but severe disease. The research aims to assess the role of the new speckle-tracking echocardiography technique in detecting right ventricular failure (RVF) in these patients, however some questions arise as a result. …
