We investigated intermodality agreements of strains from two-dimensional echocardiography (2DE) and cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) feature tracking (FT) in the assessment of right (RV) and left… (More)
Methods Clinical, anesthesia and nursing records of all patients (pts)<120 days of age who underwent CMR were reviewed. Variables including cardiac diagnosis, study duration, anesthesia type and… (More)
