A Novel Automated & Comprehensive Approach for Ventricular Function Assessment in Heart Failure

NCT02791126 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 78

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Heart failure is a major health care burden. It can occur with either normal or reduced LV ejection fraction, depending on different degrees of ventricular remodelling. The investigators recently published a new method, curvedness-based imaging. The investigators have also reported the diagnostic utility of curvedness-based imaging in various cardiac diseases. The investigators now propose to prospectively assess curvedness-based imaging for diagnosis of heart failure with normal ejection fraction and with reduced ejection fraction, and examine left ventricular systolic and diastolic function and predicts the prognosis in a cohort of HF patients.

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance

For the evaluation of left ventricular volumes, function and mass. This is also for the assessment of myocardial fibrosis based on delayed enhancement imaging technique.

OTHER

Echocardiogram

For the assessment of diastolic and systolic function as well as valvular and cardiac function. Ventricular-arterial coupling will also be performed.
