Right ventricular free wall strain significantly predicts the rate of structural disease progression in patients with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (p=0.003).
Does right ventricular free wall strain predict structural disease progression in patients with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy?
RV free wall strain may serve as a useful imaging marker to identify ARVC patients at higher risk of structural disease progression who require closer follow-up.

=0.003) of structural progression. Conclusions RV free wall strain is associated with the rate of structural progression in patients with ARVC. It may be a useful marker in determining which patients require closer follow-up and treatment.
