Association of PET-measured myocardial flow reserve with echocardiography-estimated pulmonary artery systolic pressure in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy [PDF]
, 2019 BackgroundPulmonary hypertension (PH) is a known complication of HCM and is a strong predictor of mortality. We aim to investigate the relationship between microvascular dysfunction measured by quantitative PET and PH in HCM patients.MethodsEighty-nine ...

Diastolic Dysfunction and Doppler Echocardiography
Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 2005 The recent review by Maurer et al. ([1][1]) on diastolic dysfunction was a welcome read. I concur completely with their observations that “have led us to fundamentally question whether diastolic dysfunction is the underlying pathologic mechanism of the heart failure syndrome in all ...
