Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging has become an essential technique for
the assessment of cardiac function and morphology, and is now routinely used to monitor …

Heart failure demographics have evolved in past decades with the development of improved
diagnostics, therapies, and prevention. Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) has developed …

Aims Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) continues to be a diagnostic
challenge. Cardiac magnetic resonance atrial measurement, feature tracking (CMR-FT) …

Despite remarkable progress in therapeutic drugs, morbidity, and mortality for heart failure
(HF) remains high in developed countries. HF with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) now …

Background The alteration of left atrial (LA) phasic function in subacute and chronic
pulmonary embolism (PE) patients is unclear. Purpose To investigate LA phasic strain and …

Background The absence of population-stratified cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR)
reference ranges from large cohorts is a major shortcoming for clinical care. Objectives This …

Left ventricular remodeling (LVR) potentially occurs even in patients with preserved ejection
fraction 8 (EF) after ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), where diastolic dysfunction …

Introduction Atrial remodelling (AR) is the persistent change in atrial structure and/or function
and contributes to the initiation, maintenance and progression of atrial fibrillation (AF) in a …

Abstract With a prevalence of 2-3% in the general population, mitral valve prolapse (MVP) is
the most common valvular heart disease. The clinical course is benign in the majority of …

Impairment of left ventricular (LV) diastolic function is common amongst those with left heart
disease and is associated with significant morbidity. Given that, in simple terms, the ventricle …
