3D speckle tracking imaging allows for detailed and direct evaluation of myocardial deformation, though impaired LV longitudinal function is still apparent immediately after surgery. GLS is more sensitive to an acute reduction in LV function than conventional parameters, which can be potentially useful for serial monitoring of functional recovery.
