Association of NT-proBNP and hs-cTnT with Imaging Markers of Diastolic Dysfunction and Focal Myocardial Fibrosis in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy

Association of NT-proBNP and hs-cTnT with Imaging Markers of Diastolic Dysfunction and Focal Myocardial Fibrosis in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy

Serum biomarkers such as N-terminal prohormone of the brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) and cardiac troponins are elevated in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). At present, it is not clear if these markers are associated with distinct clinical alterations in HCM, such as left ventr...
