The global prevalence of type-2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) has caused harm to human health
and economies. Cardiovascular disease is one main cause of T2DM mortality. Increased …

An evaluation of myocardial function is necessary to assess the condition of a patient's heart.
Although ejection fraction is used as a measure of myocardial function, many common …

To quantify the global and regional left ventricular (LV) myocardial strain in type 2 diabetes
mellitus (T2DM) patients using cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) tissue-tracking …

Background Myocardial deformation analyses using cardiovascular magnetic resonance
(CMR) feature tracking (CMR-FT) have incremental value in the assessment of cardiac …

To determine the feasibility of deformation analysis in the right ventricle (RV) using
cardiovascular magnetic resonance myocardial feature tracking (CMR-FT) in type 2 diabetes …

Type 2 diabetes predicts outcome following acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Since
underlying mechanics are incompletely understood, we investigated left ventricular (LV) and …

Objective This study aims to determine the effectiveness of T1ρ in detecting myocardial
fibrosis in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients by comparing with native T1 and …

Background Cardiovascular magnetic resonance based tissue tracking (CMR-TT) was
reported to provide detailed insight into left ventricular (LV) contractile function and …

Background Early detection of subclinical myocardial dysfunction in patients with type 2
diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is essential for preventing heart failure. This study aims to search …

Myocardial deformation assessed by speckle tracking echocardiography (STE) is
increasingly used for diagnosis, monitoring and prognosis in patients with clinical and pre …
