Strain Rate Imaging

Strain Rate Imaging is an ultrasound technique that measures how quickly heart muscle fibers stretch and contract during each heartbeat. By assessing these speed changes, it provides detailed information about the heart's function and health, identifying areas that might not be working normally. This imaging helps doctors detect early signs of heart problems, monitor treatment effectiveness, and evaluate overall heart performance. It offers a more precise understanding of heart mechanics compared to traditional imaging, making it a valuable tool in cardiovascular diagnostics.
