Does MR-feature tracking detect early right atrial dysfunction in patients with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy?
MR-feature tracking can detect early right atrial dysfunction in ARVC patients before volume changes occur.
Patients with ARVC exhibit impaired RA reservoir, conduit, and booster function even with normal RA volumes. MR-FT may serve as a promising approach for detecting early RA dysfunction in this population.
Shi et al. (Wed,) studied this question.
