Cardiac Imaging to Evaluate Left Ventricular Diastolic Function.

open access: yesJACC: Cardiovascular Imaging, 2015
Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction in clinical practice is generally diagnosed by imaging. Recognition of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction has increased interest in the detection and evaluation of this condition and prompted an improved understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of different imaging modalities for evaluating ...
