Abstract Background Systolic dysfunction of the left ventricle is frequently associated with isolated left ventricular non-compaction (iLVNC). Clinically, the ejection fraction (EF) is the primary index of cardiac function. However, changes of EF usually occur later in the disease course. Feature tracking (FT) and deformable registration algorithm (DRA) have become appealing techniques for myocardial strain assessment. Methods Thirty patients with iLVNC (36.7 ± 13.3 years old) and fifty healthy volunteers (42.3 ± 13.6 years old) underwent cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) examination on a 1.5 T MR scanner. Strain values in the radial, circumferential, longitudinal directions were analyzed based on the short-axis and long-axis cine images using FT and DRA methods. The iLVNC patients were further divided based on the ejection fraction, into EF ≥ 50% group (n = 11) and EF |
