Abstract

Analysis of left ventricular (LV) function is a cornerstone of echocardiography with substantial impact on therapy (medical, surgical/interventional, device implantation) and prognosis. Therefore, this assessment is part of every routine echocardiography exam. Since the first attempts using M-Mode, technical and methodological improvements resulted in the implementation of 2D and 3D technology, and doppler- or speckle tracking-based strain analyses. These approaches allow an exact quantification of LV function and improve echocardiography- based guiding of therapy. This article reviews the state-of-the-art evaluation of systolic and diastolic LV function.
