Quantification of left ventricular asynchrony throughout the whole cardiac cycle with a computed algorithm: application for optimizing resynchronization therapy.

Introduction: Measurement of left ventricular (LV) asynchrony is usually determined on single time points from spectral tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) scans that are frequently difficult to identify or not representative of the whole cardiac cycle. Our aim was to validate a new asynchrony index that e...
