Evaluation of ventricular systolic function by speckle tracking technique in patients with biliary atresia before and after liver transplantation

Abstract To evaluate the ventricular function of patients with biliary atresia (BA) before and after liver transplantation using two-dimensional speckle tracking. Observational, analytical study with healthy control group, volunteers. We recruited patients from 0 to 18 years old who were candidates...

Observational, analytical study with healthy control group, volunteers.
