Abstract
Left ventricular deformation shows significant changes while torsion is preserved in outpatients with DCM compared with control subjects. Three-dimensional global strain can discriminate subtle left ventricular dysfunction and has better reproducibility in comparison with 2D echocardiography. High-resolution 3D imaging is a useful clinical assessment tool for cardiac performance and may overcome some of the limitations of 2D analysis.
