Abstract
Conventional volumetric and functional LA parameters do not detect early changes in LA performance in patients with STEMI and secondary MR. In contrast, LA reservoir, passive and active strain are significantly higher in patients with MR. Only peak early negative strain rate substantially increases during secondary MR. LA deformation parameters derived from conventional cine images using CMR-FT technique are highly reproducible.
