Two-dimensional strain ultrasound speckle tracking as a novel approach for the evaluation of right hemidiaphragmatic longitudinal deformation

The diaphragm is an important respiratory organ. The aim of this study was to quantitatively evaluate the longitudinal deformation of the right hemidiaphragm in normal subjects using two-dimensional strain ultrasound speckle tracking. Twenty-one healthy subjects were enrolled in this study. GE Healthcare Vivid E9 equipment with M5S probe and Q-analysis software were used. Negative strain values first appeared in the zone of apposition and then in the crura of the right hemidiaphragm in the inspiratory phase; the dome of the diaphragm was observed to be passively stretched. The longitudinal strain of the right hemidiaphragm in the zone of apposition was higher than that in the crura in forced breathing (P=0.024). The strains of the whole diaphragm and the zone of apposition changed significantly in quiet (P=0.000) and forced breathing (P=0.005). Ultrasound strain imaging may quantitatively assess diaphragm deformation and provide another useful modality for evaluating diaphragm kinetics.
