Recognizing the critical need for standardization in strain imaging, in 2010, the European Association of Echocardiography (now the European Association of Cardiovascular Imaging, EACVI) and the American Society of Echocardiography (ASE) invited technical representatives from all interested vendors to participate in a concerted effort to reduce intervendor variability of strain measurement. As an initial product of the work of the EACVI/ASE/Industry initiative to standardize deformation imaging, we prepared this technical document which is intended to provide definitions, names, abbreviations, formulas, and procedures for calculation of physical quantities derived from speckle tracking echocardiography and thus create a common standard.
认识到应变成像标准化的迫切需求,2010 年,欧洲超声心动图学会(现更名为心血管成像协会,EACVI)和美国超声心动图学会(ASE)邀请所有相关供应商的技术代表参与一项协调努力,以减少应变测量的供应商间变异性。作为 EACVI/ASE/Industry 标准化变形成像工作的初步成果,我们编写了这份技术文件,旨在为斑点追踪超声心动图衍生的物理量的定义、名称、缩写、公式和计算程序提供定义,从而创建一个共同标准。
