Proven Technology to Improve Clinical Practice: EchoInsight with Strain Imaging
Recent supportive research using EchoInsight including:
Vendor-Neutral Right Ventricular Strain Measurement
The study’s objective is to research the feasibility and reliability of using a vendor-neutral platform to evaluate right ventricular (RV) strain. Reliability was determined by comparing intra- and inter-observer variability between RV strain assessments. The secondary objective was to assess strain’s correlation with conventional RV functional parameters to evaluate its feasibility as a RV systolic functional assessment tool.
Peak Left Atrial Strain as a Single Measure for the Non-invasive Assessment of Left Ventricular Filling Pressures
Echocardiographic assessment of left ventricular (LV) filling pressures is performed using a multi-parametric algorithm. Left atrial (LA) strain was recently found to accurately classify the degree of diastolic dysfunction. Researchers hypothesized that LA strain could be used as a stand-alone marker and sought to identify and test a cutoff, which would accurately detect elevated LV pressures.
Two‐Dimensional Speckle‐Tracking Strain Detects Subclinical Cardiotoxicity In Older Patients Treated for Acute Myeloid Leukemia
This study assessed changes in myocardial mechanics from standard of care low‐dose anthracycline‐based induction chemotherapy in older patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The aim of this study was to demonstrate the potential utility of strain imaging in detecting early changes in left ventricular function in this patient population after induction chemotherapy.
