From: Subclinical systolic and diastolic dysfunction in women with signs and symptoms of ischemia but no obstructive coronary disease: novel insights using myocardial feature tracking in the NHLBI WISE study

Figure 1

Feature tracking is highly correlated with gold-standard MR tissue tagging, for both diastolic circumferential strain rate (Panel A) and systolic circumferential strain (Panel B), therefore validating its applicability for myocardial function analysis. Application of this technique reveals significant differences in both diastolic (Panel C) and systolic function (Panel D) between women with suspected coronary microvascular dysfunction (n = 116 cases) and aged-matched healthy controls (n = 28).
