Why the study?
Does an automated CMR segmentation algorithm (LV-METRIC) accurately assess left ventricular diastolic dysfunction compared to echocardiography in patients with normal LV systolic function?
Does an automated CMR segmentation algorithm (LV-METRIC) accurately assess left ventricular diastolic dysfunction compared to echocardiography in patients with normal LV systolic function?
Automated CMR segmentation using the LV-METRIC algorithm provides left ventricular filling profiles, particularly diastolic volume recovery, that accurately identify diastolic dysfunction compared to echocardiography.

DVR may aid CMR diastolic assessment in preserved EF; leaves open prospective outcome validation before practice change.
