A member asked:

Poor endocardial definition precludes localized wall motion assessment septal dyskinesis questionable" what does this mean?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Sub-optimal: It means that, for reasons unrelated to your health, they couldn't see the walls of your heart very well, but they think that the interventricular septum was not contracting normally. Previous heart surgery or left bundle branch block could do that.
