Figures

Figure 1.
Figure 1.. Echocardiography from a FA patient with HCM.
The images show an apical 4 chamber with left ventricle HCM (mid-septal and apical regions) and left ventricle short axis image with concentric HCM. The last image shows regional dysfunction and decreased longitudinal strain analyzed with speckle-tracking myocardial strain.
Figure 2.
Figure 2.. FA patient with HCM.
ECG shows LVH data and repolarization abnormalities.
Figure 3.
Figure 3.. Echocardiography of a newborn diagnosed with Barth syndrome.
1) 4 chamber view shows biventricular hypertrophy, 2) shows mixed non-compaction and LV hypertropphy and 3) short axis view shows postero-apical non compaction.
Figure 4.
Figure 4.. Echocardiography from a pediatric Duchenne muscular dystrophy patient.
Note the left ventricle image with slight thickened interventricular septum and heterogeneous echogenicity. The last image shows regional dysfunction and decreased global circumferential strain based on speckle-tracking.
Figure 5.
Figure 5.. BMD patient with cardiomyopathy.
ECG shows LVH data, short PR interval and J point elevation in V2-V4 leads.
