Objective Late gadolinium enhancement cardiac magnetic resonance (LGE-CMR) imaging
is the reference standard for non-invasive assessment of fibrosis. In hypertrophic …

Aims Reduced echocardiographic strain is associated with ventricular arrhythmias in
hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) patients. The aim of this cross-sectional study was to …

Objectives: In this study we sought to explore the relationship between cardiac magnetic
resonance (CMR) with late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) and histopathological …

Aims Echocardiographic studies suggest that strain is related to myocardial fibrosis (MF) and
ventricular arrhythmias (VA) in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) patients. Cardiac …

Objectives This study examined fibrosis progression in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM)
patients, as well as its relationship to patient characteristics, clinical outcomes, and its effect …

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) represents one of the primary cardiomyopathies and
may lead to heart failure and sudden cardiac death. Among various histologic features of the …

Background The presence of myocardial fibrosis is associated with worse clinical outcomes
in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) with late …

Aims Regional myocardial fibrosis detected by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) using
late enhancement (LE) indicates an unfavorable prognosis. We investigated in a prospective …

Aims Myocardial fibrosis as detected by late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) on cardiac
magnetic resonance (CMR) is a powerful prognostic marker in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy …

The relationship among myocardial fibrosis, segmental strains, and hypertrophic
cardiomyopathy (HCM) in patients with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction is not …
