Background Predictors of risk of lethal arrhythmic events (LAE) is poorly understood and
may differ from adults in children with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Objective The …

Purpose Quantitative myocardial perfusion mapping has advantages over qualitative
assessment, including the ability to detect global flow reduction. However, it is not clinically …

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to determine whether right ventricular (RV)
volumes are more accurately and reproducibly measured by cardiac magnetic resonance …

BACKGROUND: Published reference values for echocardiographic measurements of right-
heart dimensions and function do not stratify for gender and body size. The aim of this study …

Background: The Ozaki procedure is a surgical technique for patients with significant aortic
stenosis or regurgitation or both where valve repair cannot be performed. Individual cusps …

There is unequivocal evidence that exercise results in considerable health benefits. These
