Left Atrial Geometry and Phasic Function Determined by Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Are Independent Predictors for Outcome in Non-Ischaemic Dilated Cardiomyopathy

Left atrial (LA) geometry and phasic functions are frequently impaired in non-ischaemic dilated cardiomyopathy (NIDCM). Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) can accurately measure LA function and geometry parameters. We sought to investigate their prognostic role in patients with NIDCM. We prospectively...
