Calibrated Integrated Backscatter Is Associated With Increased Left Ventricular Concentricity and Left Atrial Stiffness in Resistance Trained Individuals Using Anabolic-Androgenic Steroids. [PDF]

Echocardiography
This study evaluates calibrated integrated backscatter (ciB) for myocardial tissue characterization in 141 resistance‐trained participants (95 AAS users, 46 non‐users). Using echocardiography, ciB was measured from the parasternal long axis orientation. Results show current AAS users have significantly higher ciB than non‐users (–19.54 vs.
