Abstract
We propose a new method for the study of regional strain data by analyzing individually the software-generated 48 regions of interest (ROI) from an LV wall tracing in B-mode. This helps obtain a more comprehensive profile of strain data. Using these new tools, we studied in mice how sex, sex hormones, age, or a pathological stress influenced strain parameters. We show that for similar cardiac hypertrophy, regional strain shows important differences related to sex, sex hormones, and age.
