Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction is a major cause of heart failure and carries a poor
prognosis. Assessment of left ventricular diastolic function however remains challenging for …

Post-ischemic left ventricular (LV) remodeling is a biologically complex process involving
myocardial structure, LV shape, and function, beginning early after myocardial infarction (MI) …

Patients who have heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) have signs and
symptoms of heart failure, yet their ejection fraction remains greater than or equal to 50 …

Intracardiac blood flow has long been proposed to play a significant role in cardiac
morphology and function. However, absolute blood pressure within the heart has mainly …

Diastolic vortex ring (VR) plays a key role in the blood-pumping function exerted by the left
ventricle (LV), with altered VR structures being associated with LV dysfunction. Herein, we …

Cardiac amyloidosis (CA) is characterized by amyloid infiltration in the myocardial
extracellular space, causing heart failure. Patients with CA are currently underdiagnosed …

Amyloidosis is a systemic disease, characterized by deposition of amyloid fibrils in various
organs, including the heart. For the diagnosis of cardiac amyloidosis (CA) it is required a …

Recent developments on the grading of cardiac pathologies suggest flow-related metrics for
a deeper evaluation of cardiac function. Blood flow evaluation employs space-time resolved …

Objective Heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) is associated with structural
and functional left ventricular changes. We compared intracardiac vortices between patients …

Double outlet right ventricle (DORV) is a malformation of the fetal heart in utero that affects
the ventricular chambers. It usually presents with a displacement of the aorta and more than …
