Comparison of echocardiography with tissue Doppler imaging and magnetic resonance imaging with delayed enhancement in the assessment of children with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

Introduction : In children with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) there often occurs a non-ischemic pattern of myocardial fibrosis, which could be the cause of impaired left ventricular (LV) diastolic function assessed by tissue Doppler imaging (TDI). The aim of the study was to determine the preval...
