Measurement of longitudinal strain in ME 4C, ME 2C, and ME LAX view before (a) and after (b) pericardial incision in a case with ischemic cardiomyopathy. This patient had three vessel coronary artery lesions with chronic total occlusion in left circumflex artery. ME 4C, mid-esophageal 4-chamber; ME 2C, mid-esophageal 2-chamber; ME LAX, mid-esophageal long-axis; LV, left ventricular; GLS, global longitudinal strain
