Abstract excerpt
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is a complex genetic cardiovascular disorder with substantial variability in phenotypic expression and natural progression. Recent research demonstrates the incremental utility of cardiac magnetic resonance in the diagnosis, therapeutic planning, and prognostication of this disease. The increasing incorporation of multimodality imaging of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy in clinical...
