Imaging, biomarker and invasive assessment of diffuse left ventricular myocardial fibrosis in atrial fibrillation
Abstract Background Using cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (CMR), it is possible to detect diffuse fibrosis of the left ventricle (LV) in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF), which may be independently associated with recurrence of AF after ablation. By conducting CMR, clinical, electrop...
