Fig. 2From: Associations of 2D speckle tracking echocardiography-based right heart deformation parameters and invasively assessed hemodynamic measurements in patients with pulmonary hypertensionRepresentative example of speckle tracking echocardiography (2D STE-) derived longitudinal strain of the right ventricle obtained in the apical 4-chamber view. Dotted white curve indicates mean of all segments, where RVS is derived from maximum excursion. The RV Free wall consists of three segments, which are colored red, dark blue and pink in the STE analysisBack to article page
