The E'/A' ratio, the E/E' ratio, and the isovolumetric relaxation time measured by tissue Doppler imaging is highly accurate and easily applicable for detecting diastolic LV function, and the MPI is suitable for detecting both systolic and diastolic LV dysfunction. Their routine use may be useful in evaluating LV functions in children with CKD.
