Objectives Our aim was to evaluate the inter-vendor reproducibility of cardiovascular MR feature tracking (CMR-FT) for the measurement of segmental strain (SS) of the left ventricle (LV) as well as to test the accuracy of CMR-FT to detect regional myocardial pathology.Methods We selected 45 patients: 15 with normal CMR findings, 15 with dilated cardiomyopathy, and 15 with acute myocardial infarction. Segmental longitudinal, circumferential, and radial strains were assessed with 4 different software. The inter-vendor difference as well as intra- and inter-observer variability was investigated. Furthermore, the accuracy of CMR-FT for the detection of structural (infarcted segments) as well as functional pathology (septal vs. lateral wall strain in left bundle branch block) was tested.Results Between vendors, there were significant differences in values for all strains (p0.962 and coefficient of variation (CV)
