超声心动图的使用在过去的几年里有了巨大的增长。常规用于冠状动脉疾病、心力衰竭、肺动脉高压、心律失常、心包疾病和瓣膜疾病以及先天性疾病的诊断、预后和监测心功能变化。近年来，用于通过超声评估心脏的先进技术使医生能够了解心肌的力学以及心肌运动异常对心脏病的影响。这篇综述将讨论新的超声心动图应变成像技术，将其置于心肌力学的背景下，并描述当前和未来的应用。
The use of echocardiography has grown tremendously over the past several years. It is used routinely for diagnosis, prognosis and monitoring changes of cardiac function in coronary artery disease, heart failure, pulmonary hypertension, arrhythmias, pericardial disease and valvular disease, as well as congenital conditions. In recent years, the advancing technology used to evaluate the heart by ultrasound has allowed physicians to understand the mechanics of the heart muscle and the contribution of abnormalities in myocardial movement to heart disease. This review will discuss novel echocardiographic strain imaging techniques, placing them in the context of myocardial mechanics and describing current and future applications.
