Multilayer strain measurement with cardiac magnetic resonance feature tracking (CMR-FT) allows independent assessment of endocardial and epicardial strain. This novel method of layer-specific quantification of myocardial deformation parameters provides greater insight into contractility compared to whole-layer strain analysis. The clinical utility of this technique is promising. The aim of this study is to investigate the intra- and inter- observer reproducibility of CMR-FT derived multilayer global longitudinal strain (GLS) and global circumferential strain (GCS) parameters in the setting of normal cardiac function, cardiac pathology, and differing MRI field strengths.
