Why the study?
Routine 2D segmented cine with multi-slice Simpson method makes evaluating LV volume and function difficult during AF due to endocardial border blurring and beat-to-beat variation.
Does compressed sensing real-time cine imaging combined with an area-length method accurately assess left ventricular systolic function compared to routine segmented cine imaging in patients with normal sinus rhythm and atrial fibrillation?
Population
71 patients with NSR (n = 36) or AF (n = 35)

Hypothesis-generating for CSRT area-length LV assessment in AF; prospective validation required before clinical use.
Does compressed sensing real-time cine imaging combined with an area-length method accurately assess left ventricular systolic function compared to routine segmented cine imaging in patients with normal sinus rhythm and atrial fibrillation?
CSRT cine imaging combined with two-chamber area-length analysis accurately assesses LV systolic function in normal sinus rhythm and provides superior image quality for beat-to-beat analysis in atrial fibrillation.
