Figure 1 Extent of LV Dyssynchrony Was Significantly Larger in Patients With LV Remodeling During Follow-Up Versus Those Without LV Remodeling
Left panel demonstrates time-strain curves of a patient without dyssynchrony at baseline. This patient did not show left ventricular (LV) remodeling during follow-up (left ventricular end-systolic volume [LVESV] was 84 vs. 73 ml, baseline vs. 6-month follow-up). Right panel demonstrates time-strain curves of a patient with LV dyssynchrony at baseline (earliest activated segments: purple, green, and dark-blue, latest activated segments: light-blue, yellow, and red). This patient showed LV remodeling during follow-up (LVESV was 77 vs. 122 ml, baseline vs. 6-month follow-up).
