Abstract
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to assess the relationship between left atrial contractile function, as quantified by cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) volumetry, and left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP). Material and Methods : We assessed 26 patients with impaired left ventricular systolic function using steady-state free precession CMR volumetry. The percentage of left atrial contraction contribution (ACC) to left ventricular (LV) filling was determined. It was calculated
