The heart in Sickle Cell Disease : role of non invasive cardiac imaging by advanced echocardiography and cardiac magnetic resonance assessment of myocardial function

2014-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Sickle cell disease (SCD) is one of the most prevalent genetic disorders worldwide that affects approximately 12,000 people in the United Kingdom. Raised tricuspid regurgitant velocity (TRV), which may be related to left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (LV DD), occurs in approximately 30% of adults with SCD, and has been shown to be an independent risk factor for death. This thesis examines aspects of the role o...
