Does the four-dimensional automatic left atrial quantification technique provide utility in evaluating left atrial volume and function in patients with HFpEF?
4D LAQ technology, particularly the LASct-c parameter, provides a useful noninvasive and quantitative assessment of left atrial function in patients with HFpEF.
4D LAQ technology can provide a noninvasive and quantitative assessment of LA volume and myocardial strain in patients with HFpEF. Among the assessed parameters, LASct-c demonstrated superior performance for assessing LA function in patients with HFpEF.
