Abstract

An ultrasound technique known as speckle-tracking imaging may be used to objectively and quantitatively analyse the overall and localised heart functions (STI). In patients with acute inferior myocardial infarction, we used speckle-tracking and conventional echocardiography to study the connection between echocardiographic characteristics and the prediction of proximal RCA lesions. This study has a total of 77 participants. Group 1 was given an RCA occlusion in the right ventricle's proximal branch, whereas Group 2 was given an RCA occlusion in the right ventricle's distal branch
