The association of reduced left ventricular strains with increased extracellular volume and their collective impact on clinical outcomes
Abstract Background Myocardial fibrosis and left ventricular (LV) longitudinal strain are independently associated with adverse clinical outcomes. However, the relationship between tissue properties and strain indices as well as their collective impact on outcomes are yet to be fully elucidated. We...
