Three and two dimensional cardiac mechanics by speckle tracking are predictors of outcomes in chagas heart disease
Sci. rep. (Nat. Publ. Group); 12 (1), 2022
ABSTRACT: Chagas disease (CD) is a neglected infectious disease associated with early mortality and substantial disability. Three-dimensional speckle tracking (3D STE) may play a role in the evaluation of CD. We aim to characterize new echocardiographic variables in patients with CD and to assess the hyp...
