Do left superior pulmonary venous ridge length and left atrial appendage fractal dimension predict cardioembolic ischemic stroke and transient ischemic attack in patients with atrial fibrillation?
Left superior pulmonary venous ridge length and left atrial appendage fractal dimension are proposed as predictors of stroke and TIA in patients with atrial fibrillation.
Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
May support novel imaging markers for AF-related stroke risk; leaves open validation and incremental value over CHA2DS2-VASc.
