Abstract Echocardiography is essential for the diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular disease. Assessing left ventricle diastolic function is a major challenge, and several well-known ultrasound techniques, such as pulsed Doppler for mitral flow, tissue Doppler, and myocardial strain, are used to non-invasively estimate left atrial filling pressure. Although widely available, this approach has several limitations and does not truly represent the intrinsic properties of the cardiac muscle. However, cardiac elastography can be studied non-invasively by estimating myocardial stiffness through shear […]
