Echocardiography‐quantified myocardial strain—a marker of global and regional infarct size that stratifies likelihood of left ventricular thrombus

Background Myocardial strain provides a novel means of quantifying subtle alterations in contractile function; incremental utility post‐MI is unknown. Objectives To test longitudinal—quantified by postprocessing routine echo—for assessment of MI size measured by cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) and...
