Abstract
The diastolic dysfunction and abnormal myocardial acoustic densitometry exist before the systolic function damage in DM2 patients. Tissue Doppler imaging and ultrasonic integrated backscatter can be used as sensitive means for early assessing myocardial histological changes in DM2 patients. HbA1c is related with both diastolic dysfunction and acoustic densitometry.
