Right Ventricular Strain and Dyssynchrony Assessment in Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Cardiomyopathy: Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Feature-Tracking Study.
BACKGROUND Analysis of right ventricular (RV) regional dysfunction by cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging in arrhythmogenic RV cardiomyopathy (ARVC) may be inadequate because of the complex contraction pattern of the RV. Aim of this study was to determine the use of RV strain and dyssynchrony assessment in ARVC using feature-tracking CMR analysis. METHODS AND RESULTS Thirty-two consecuti...
متن کاملArrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Cardiomyopathy
Arrythmogenic right ventricular (RV) cardiomyopathy (ARVC) is a cardiomyopathy characterized pathologically by fibrofatty replacement primarily of the RV and clinically by life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias in apparently healthy young people. The prevalence of the disease has been estimated at 1 in 5,000 individuals, although this estimate will likely increase as awareness of the conditio...
متن کاملArrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy.
Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) has evolved from postmortem pathology at to a diagnosable clinical condition, and holds promise for definitive genetic diagnosis. Its prevalence is between 1/1,000 and 1/5,000, with 10% of deaths occurring before age 19 and 50% before age 35. When analyzed against age-specific norms, the electrocardiography (ECG) and signal-averaged ECG (SA...
متن کاملEchocardiographic assessment of arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate new echocardiographic modes in the diagnosis of arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC). DESIGN Prospective observational study. SETTING University Hospital. SUBJECTS 15 patients with ARVC and a control group of 25 healthy subjects. METHODS Transthoracic echocardiography included cross sectional measurements of the right ventricular outflow tract, ri...
متن کاملArrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Cardiomyopathy/Dysplasia1
Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy/dysplasia (ARVC/D) is characterized by the patchy replacement of myocardium by fatty or fibrofatty tissue. These changes lead to structural abnormalities including right ventricular enlargement and wall motion abnormalities that can be detected by echocardiography, angiography, and cine MRI. ARVC/D is a genetically heterogeneous disorder, since it...
