Abstract:
Objective To explore left ventricular longitudinal axis systolic asynchrony by real-time triplane quanti-tativetissue velocity imaging(RT-3PE QTVI) and two-dimensional speckle tracking imaging(STI) in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy. Methods Thirty normal adults were included as the control group and thirty adults with DCM. The images from enough frame rates RT-3PE QTVI and STI were obtained from series long-axis views. Simp-son method was used to measure LVEF. Q-lab software was used to measure peak systolic tissue velocity(Vs) and peak systolic longitudinal strain (Ls),its time to peak point from each segment(Ts,Tls) and the maximal temporal difference of Ts,Tls(Ts-diff,Tls-diff),and the standard deviation of. Ts,Tls(Ts-SD,Tls-SD),which were served as systolic asynchrony indexes in assessing LV longitudinal axis systolic asynchrony. Results ① Compared the con-trol group and DCM group,there were significant differences in LVEDd,LVESd,LVEDL,LVESL,LVEF,FS (P<0.01). ② In comparison with the control group,the Ls and Vs of each segment were decreased in the DCM group (P<0.01). Compared with the control group,the parameters of Tls and Ts in DCM group had obvious ahead or de-layed(P<0.05). ③ Compared with the control group,the parameters of Ts-SD, Tls-SD, Ts-diff, Tls-diff,were significantly different in DCM group (P<0.01). Ts-SD,Tls-SD,Ts-diff,Tls-diff corrrlated negatively to LVEF(r=-0.67,-0.72,-0.75, -0.77,P<0.01). Conclusion The prevalence of left ventricular longitndinal axis systolic asynchrony exits in patients with DCM. There is a better technique to evaluate LV longitudinal axis systolic asynchrony by RT-3PE QTVI and STI than only one.
