From: Measurements of left ventricular myocardial longitudinal systolic displacement using spectral and colour tissue Doppler: time for a reassessment?

Figure 1

Typical LV longitudinal myocardial velocity curves obtained with colour TD at different temporal filter widths ( top ) from the most basal segment of septum ( insertion ). Integration of the velocity curves over time yielded the corresponding longitudinal myocardial displacement curves (bottom). Isovolumic contraction time (IVCT) and isovolumic relaxation time (IVRT) as well as the applied temporal filters are indicated.
