A 43-year-old asymptomatic man was screened for premature ventricular contractions on electrocardiography during an annual health check-up. Echocardiography demonstrated preserved left ventricular function with a normal radial strain profile ( Panel A ). However, three-dimensional analysis revealed left ventricular asynchrony with delayed peak excursion in the septal to inferior wall ( Panel …
