Left ventricular global longitudinal strain and diagnostic yield of genetic testing in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy in a multicenter registry analysis

Abstract In this multicenter study we investigated whether echocardiography-derived left ventricular global longitudinal strain (LV GLS), an indicator of myocardial fibrosis, independently predicts a positive genotype in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). We performed a cross-sectional analysis incl...
