Abstract
Intra-thoracic fat volume is associated with impaired myocardial function and adverse left ventricular remodeling in patients with known or suspected coronary artery disease
Highlights
Intrathoracic fat volume (ITFV) is a reproducible imaging biomarker and has been associated with coronary artery disease (CAD) and myocardial infarction
Intra-thoracic fat volume is associated with impaired myocardial function and adverse left ventricular remodeling in patients with known or suspected coronary artery disease
We explored the relationship between ITFV and 4D myocardial strainbased markers of adverse remodeling in the non-infarcted myocardium of patients with known or suspected CAD
Summary
Intrathoracic fat volume (ITFV) is a reproducible imaging biomarker and has been associated with coronary artery disease (CAD) and myocardial infarction. Relationships between ITFV and adverse left ventricular remodeling of the non-infarcted myocardium are unknown. We explored the relationship between ITFV and 4D myocardial strainbased markers of adverse remodeling in the non-infarcted myocardium of patients with known or suspected CAD
