Comparison of Three-Dimensional Speckle Tracking Echocardiography and Two-Dimensional Echocardiography for Evaluation of Left Atrial Size and Function in Healthy Volunteers (Results from the MAGYAR-Healthy Study)

Objective Noninvasive accurate assessment of left atrial (LA) size and function is an essential requirement in daily clinical practice. Real time three‐dimensional (3D) echocardiography (RT3DE) with direct volumetric method has been found to be a highly accurate and reproducible noninvasive tool for...
