Cardiac magnetic resonance–measured left atrial volume and function and incident atrial fibrillation: results from MESA (Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis)
M Habibi, S Samiei, B Ambale Venkatesh… - Circulation …, 2016 - Am Heart Assoc
Background—Early detection of structural changes in left atrium (LA) before atrial fibrillation
(AF) development could be helpful in identification of those at higher risk for AF. Using
cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, we examined the association of LA volume and
function, and incident AF in a multiethnic population free of clinical cardiovascular diseases.
Methods and Results—In a case–cohort study embedded in MESA (Multi-Ethnic Study of
Atherosclerosis), baseline LA size and function assessed by cardiac magnetic resonance …
