The Correlation between Epicardial Adipose Tissue Thickness Measured by Echocardiography and P-Wave Dispersion and Atrial Fibrillation
The echocardiography-measured epicardial adipose tissue thickness, particularly in proximity to the heart base, exhibits a significant correlation with Pd. Notably, EAT thickness near the heart base demonstrates superior predictive capability for atrial fibrillation compared to thickness near the apex.
