The multi-modality cardiac imaging approach to the Athlete's heart: an expert consensus of the European Association of Cardiovascular Imaging [PDF]
, 2015 The term 'athlete's heart' refers to a clinical picture characterized by a slow heart rate and enlargement of the heart. A multi-modality imaging approach to the athlete's heart aims to differentiate physiological changes due to intensive training in the

CMR for Assessment of Diastolic Function [PDF]
Current Cardiovascular Imaging Reports, 2011 Prevalence of heart failure with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction amounts to 50% of all cases with heart failure. Diagnosis assessment requires evidence of left ventricular diastolic dysfunction. Currently, echocardiography is the method of choice for diastolic function testing in clinical practice.

Diastolic function evaluation in children with ventricular arrhythmia
Scientific Reports, 2023 Premature ventricular contractions (PVC) are frequently seen in children. We evaluated left ventricular diastolic function in PVC children with normal left ventricular systolic function to detect whether diastolic function disturbances affect physical ...
