Prevalence of Unexplained Left Ventricular Hypertrophy by Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging in MESA
Background Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is defined as unexplained left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy (wall thickness ≥15 mm) and is prevalent in 0.2% of adults (1:500) in population‐based studies using echocardiography. Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) allows for more accurate wall thickness m...
