Left ventricular mechanical dyssynchrony (LVMD) is defined by a difference in the timing of
mechanical contraction or relaxation between different segments of the left ventricle (LV) …

2013 ACCF/ACR/ASE/ASNC/SCCT/SCMR Appropriate Utilization of Cardiovascular
Imaging in Heart Failure: A Joint Report of the American College of Radiology …

Heart failure (HF) is a global phenomenon, and the overall incidence and prevalence of the
condition are steadily increasing. Medical therapies have proven efficacious, but only a …

Background Prevalence and prognostic value of diastolic and systolic dyssynchrony in
patients with coronary artery disease (CAD)+ heart failure (HF) or CAD alone are not well …

Background Intuitively, cardiac dyssynchrony is the inevitable result of myocardial injury. We
hypothezised that radial dyssynchrony reflects left ventricular remodeling, myocardial …

Objective 82 Rb PET protocols enable determination of left ventricular asynchrony (LVAS) at
rest and stress, along with myocardial blood flow (MBF). We hypothesized that in patients …

Heart failure (HF) represents a critical stage of cardiac disease, associated with high
morbidity and mortality. Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) has become a pivotal …

The following editorial refers to the article published by Sillanmäki et al. titled ''Relationships
between electrical and mechanical dyssynchrony in patients with left bundle branch block …

Background Cardiac resynchronization therapy using bi‐ventricular pacing is proven
effective in the management of heart failure (HF) with a wide QRS‐complex. In the absence …

Left ventricular (LV) dyssynchrony is a known cause of mortality in patients with heart failure
and may possibly play a similar role in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) in whom …
