Additional File 1:

TSI in a patient with LBBB before BVP: The lateral segments show a delayed time-to-peak velocity (red colour). Apical four chamber view.

Format: ZIP Size: 7.4MB Download file

Additional File 2:

TSI post-implantation: There is only green colour coding indicating synchronous contraction of all segments from apical four chamber view.

Additional File 3:

Tissue Tracking without BVP : There are reduced displacement values and no basal-apical gradient in the septal segments and DLC in the lateral wall (no colour-coding) indicating asynchrony of the lateral wall. Apical four chamber view.
