Features of speckle tracking echocardiography for diagnosis of myocardial dysfunction [PDF]

open access: yesКардиоСоматика, 2021
Despite the undoubted success in the diagnosis of heart failure using echocardiography, the issue of detecting diastolic dysfunction of the left ventricle of the heart in the early stages remains insufficiently studied.

A review of heart chamber segmentation for structural and functional analysis using cardiac magnetic resonance imaging [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) has become a key imaging modality in clinical cardiology practice due to its unique capabilities for non-invasive imaging of the cardiac chambers and great vessels. A wide range of CMR sequences have been developed

Right-sided heart failure is also associated with transverse tubule remodeling in the left ventricle.

open access: yes, 2021
Right-sided heart failure is a common consequence of pulmonary arterial hypertension. Overloading the right ventricle results in right ventricular hypertrophy, which progresses to failure in a process characterized by impaired Ca2+ dynamics and force ...
