Effect of Infarct Location and Size on Left Atrial Function: A Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance Feature Tracking Study.

ABSTRACT: LA function has been recognized as a significant prognostic marker in many cardiovascular diseases. Cardiovascular magnetic resonance feature tracking (CMR-FT) represents a promising technique for left atrial function evaluation. The size and location of myocardial infarction are important factors in the cause of adverse left ventricular remodeling, but the effect on the left atriam is unclear. to investigate the effect of location and size of previous myocardial infarction (MI) on LA function using CMR-FT. retrospective. patients formerly diagnosed with anterior MI (n = 42) or non-anterior MI (n = 40) and healthy controls (n = 47). Field Strength/Sequence: a 3.0T MR, Steady state free precession (SSFP), Phase-sensitive inversion recovery (PSIR). infarct location and size were assigned and
