Discrepancy between MRI and echocardiography in assessing functional left ventricular parameters and scar characteristics in patients with chronic ischemic cardiomyopathy
Background: Studies have demonstrated that infarct size estimated by CMR-LGE was an independent determinant of adverse LV remodeling and dysfunction. Objective: We sought to assess relationship between different scar characteristics and left ventricular remodeling and dysfunction using late gadolini...
