Abstract
The use of contrast-enhanced transthoracic echocardiography to evaluate left ventricular regional wall motion was determined by comparison of echocardiographic data with assessments obtained by magnetic resonance imaging. When left ventricular endocardial segments are well visualized after contrast enhancement, the ability to determine normal versus abnormal endocardial thickening with echocardiography is similar to cine magnetic resonance imaging.Keywords: Non-programmatic
