Abstract Background: Myocardial work (MW) is a novel imaging modality that has emerged as a potential left ventricular (LV) function assessment in various clinical settings. MW calculates speckle-tracking echocardiography strain curves with an estimated LV pressure curve by non-invasively utilizing standard brachial blood pressure curves. Objective: This study aimed to provide a summary of current knowledge of non-invasive MW and its clinical applications, including in heart failure, coronary artery disease, cardiomyopathy, and hypertension. In addition, the limitations, and recommendations of […]
