Usefulness of Tissue Tracking by Cardiac Magnetic Resonance to Predict Events in Patients With Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HC) is the most common cardiovascular inherited disease, and it is associated with arrhythmic events, heart failure, and death. Strain analysis by tissue tracking (TT) techniques on cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) is a novel noninvasive diagnostic tool. However, the use...

Summary: | Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HC) is the most common cardiovascular inherited disease, and it is associated with arrhythmic events, heart failure, and death. Strain analysis by tissue tracking (TT) techniques on cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) is a novel noninvasive diagnostic tool. However, the usefulness of CMR-TT to identify patients with HC at risk of adverse outcomes remains unknown. CMR strain parameters by CMR-TT were prospectively measured in a cohort of 136 consecutive patients with HC. Clinical (death or readmission for heart failure) and arrhythmic (any ventricular tachycardia) events during follow-up were prospectively recorded. Global radial systolic strain rate and global radial diastolic strain rate showed the best area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC curve) to predict adverse clinical events. On Cox multivariate regression models, a global radial systolic strain rate value |
