Fractal analysis of left ventricular trabeculations is associated with impaired myocardial deformation in healthy Chinese

Abstract Background Left ventricular (LV) non-compaction (LVNC) is defined by extreme LV trabeculation, but is measured variably. Here we examined the relationship between quantitative measurement in LV trabeculation and myocardial deformation in health and disease and determined the clinical utilit...
