Duration of interventricular septal shift toward the left ventricle is associated with poor clinical outcome in precapillary pulmonary hypertension: A cardiac magnetic resonance study

Background: Right ventricular pressure overload results in interventricular septal shift toward the left ventricle in patients with precapillary pulmonary hypertension (PH). We aimed to investigate the predictive role of the duration of septal curvature configuration during the cardiac cycle, as exp...
