AB  - OBJECTIVE: The aims of this study were to characterize focal myocardial damage of 
      cardiac sarcoidosis by strain analysis and to compare it with late gadolinium 
      enhancement (LGE) and fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography. 
      METHODS: We reviewed 208 segments from 13 cardiac sarcoidosis patients and 
      measured the circumferential strain (Ecc) and the strain change per second (Ecc 
      rate). The mean Ecc and Ecc rate values were compared between the FDG(+) and 
      FDG(-), and the LGE(+) and LGE(-) segments using Welch's t test. RESULTS: The 
      peak and max Ecc rates were better in the LGE(-) segments than in the LGE(+) 
      segments (-11.8 vs -8.9%, 40.5 vs 29.7%/s, both P < 0.001). The max Ecc rate was 
      higher in the FDG(-) segments than in the FDG(+) segments (39.2 vs 31.7%/s, P < 
      0.001), but the peak Ecc did not differ between the FDG(+) and FDG(-) segments 
      (-11.2 vs -10.1%, P = 0.17). CONCLUSIONS: Strain analysis could reveal focal 
      myocardial damage in the FDG(+) or the LGE(+) segments.
