Abstract:
... Although degenerative mitral valve disease (DMVD) is essentially a disorder of the valve, the progression of the disease leads to structural myocardial changes that may compromise left ventricular systolic function. Tissue motion annular displacement (TMAD) is a surrogate for longitudinal fiber function based on speckle tracking assessment of the movement of the mitral annulus toward the apex duri ...

Abstract:
... Left ventricular systolic function is one of the main parameters studied in echocardiography. Longitudinal systolic function, however, is less commonly evaluated in routine examinations but may provide early information on systolic dysfunction. The movement of the mitral annulus toward the apex has already been determined as a method for evaluation of longitudinal systolic function in dogs, but th ...

Abstract:
... There are few parameters for assessment of right ventricular (RV) systolic function on echocardiographic examination. Morphofunctional studies are limited by the irregular shape of the RV. Recently, tissue motion annular displacement (TMAD), a technique that evaluates valve annulus displacement toward the cardiac apex, has shown a good correlation with left ventricular global longitudinal strain ( ...
