Abstract:Background
The functional implications of left ventricular (LV) morphological characterization in congenital heart disease (CHD) are not widely explored. This study qualitatively and quantitatively assessed LV shape associations with a) LV function and b) thoracic aortic morphology in patients with aortic coarctation (CoA) with/without bicuspid aortic valve (BAV).
Methods
A statistical shape modelling (SSM) framework was employed to analyse three-dimensional (3D) LV shapes from cardiac magnetic resonance (CM… Show more
