Early Diastolic Release Flow Is a Sensitive Early Marker for Left Ventricular Apical Aneurysm in Patients with Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy
EDRF is a sensitive early echocardiographic marker of LVAA that is most useful for LVAA that would otherwise be missed on standard 2D echocardiography. Identification should prompt definitive testing with CMR or contrast-enhanced echocardiography.
