Novel indices for left-ventricular dyssynchrony characterization based on highly automated segmentation from real-time 3-d echocardiography.

Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) using a biventricular pacemaker is an invasive and expensive treatment option for left ventricular mechanical dyssynchrony (LVMD). The CRT candidate selection is a crucial issue due to the unreliability of the current standard CRT indicators. Real-time three-d...
