Magnetic resonance spectroscopy evidence of abnormal cardiac energetics in Xp21 muscular dystrophy.

OBJECTIVES: Our aim was to measure the cardiac phosphocreatine to adenosine triphosphate ratio (PCr/ATP) noninvasively in patients and carriers of Xp21 muscular dystrophy and to correlate the results with left ventricular (LV) function as measured by echocardiography. BACKGROUND: Duchenne and Becker...
