Diagnosis of ischemia in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: role of computed tomography and nuclear stress testing.

TL;DR: In low–intermediate-risk symptomatic patients with HCM, both NST and CCTA are acceptable diagnostic tools for the evaluation of myocardial ischemia, and both can be used to rule out significant epicardial stenosis in the presence of nuclear perfusion defect.

Evidence for Left Ventricular Outflow Tract Obstruction With Minimal Septal Hypertrophy The Case Grows Stronger for a Multimodality Imaging Strategy for Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy

TL;DR: The past 2 decades have witnessed a new era of imaging for this disease, with the emergence of cardiovascular MRI (CMR), which provides 3-dimensional tomographic imaging, high spatial resolution, and sharp contrast between the blood pool and surroundings.

Temporal and Global Trends of the Incidence of Sudden Cardiac Death in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy.

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors investigated the temporal, geographic, and age-related trends of reported sudden cardiac death (SCD) rates in adult hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic testing for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: ongoing voyage from exploration to clinical exploitation

TL;DR: It is shown that to underestimate the clinical potential of genetic testing in HCM, and to defer its implementation until more advanced knowledge becomes available, is to lose an important opportunity for present improvement in care.

The predictive value of epicardial adipose tissue volume assessed by cardiac magnetic resonance for atrial fibrillation in patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy

TL;DR: Wang et al. as discussed by the authors used E-3D medical model software to determine epicardial adipose tissue (EATV) and left atrial volume (LAV) for detecting atrial fibrillation in patients with HOCM.

Recommendations for the evaluation of left ventricular diastolic function by echocardiography

TL;DR: The assessment of left ventricular (LV) diastolic function and filling pressures is of paramount clinical importance to distinguish this syndrome from other diseases such as pulmonary disease resulting in dyspnea, to assess prognosis, and to identify underlying cardiac disease and its best treatment.
