Abstract
Longitudinal sS most accurately detects longitudinal systolic dysfunction in AL and best differentiates patients with advanced-CA with increased ventricular thickness from patients withâAL-normal-wall-thickness. Interrogation of six middle segments was sufficient in identifying patients with advanced-CA. Further studies are warranted to define the incremental prognostic value of these new parameters in predicting outcomes for patients with AL.
