Imaging Aortic Regurgitation: The Incremental Benefit of Speckle Tracking Echocardiography

Aortic regurgitation (AR) affects global left ventricular mechanics. However, limited literature is available on how it may affect regional longitudinal strain. We present a case where severe AR jet is thrashing the anterior-septal wall and reducing its overall longitudinal performance most likely s...
