Table 1 Left atrial strain and strain rate indexes as determined by speckle tracking echocardiography and cardiovascular magnetic resonance myocardial feature tracking

LA function	Strain	Strain rate
Reservoir	epsilon_S	SR_S
Conduit	epsilon_E	SR_E
Booster pump	epsilon_A	SR_A

Nomenclature refers to the QRS complex set as the reference point and is therefore applicable to both peckle tracking echocardiography and cardiovascular magnetic resonance myocardial feature tracking. LA: Left atrial; epsilon: Strain; SR: Strain rate.
