- Recommendations for the evaluation of left ventricular diastolic function by echocardiography. (2008, neutral): “Strain may also be measured by 2D speckle-tracking echocardiography, an emerging technology that measures strain by tracking speckles in grayscale echocardiographic images.(111,112) The speckles function as natural acoustic markers that can be tracked from frame to frame, and velocity and strain are”
