The RV and LV longitudinal displacement fractional shortening can be computed from 2-dimensional images of the 4-chamber view and correlated with global strain. The longitudinal displacement fractional shortening was significantly greater for the RV than the LV and was abnormal in fetuses with RV and LV cardiac abnormalities.
