Does left atrial appendage assessment by MRI/MRA predict the risk of stroke/TIA in patients with atrial fibrillation?
LAA assessment by MRI/MRA may serve as an adjunctive tool for risk stratification of embolic events in patients with atrial fibrillation.
LAA dimensions predict strokes/TIAs in patients with AF. LAA assessment by MRI/MRA can potentially be used as an adjunctive tool for risk stratification for embolic events in AF patients.
Beinart et al. (Mon,) studied this question.
