Strain on the 2D speckle tracking image. An example of speckle tracking radial strain (S, A) and the strain rate (SR, B) using the midventricular short-axis view. The LV myocardium was divided into six segments, which were color coded, and the values of the deformation parameters were displayed graphically for all six segments. The peak radial S and SR were obtained from the peak values of the systolic curves in each segment (arrow).
