Excerpt

Right ventricular (RV) regional wall characteristics are important in CMR evaluation for arrhythmogenic RV dysplasia (ARVD). While some features are well defined, others are of uncertain clinical significance, due in part, to the high prevalence of RV wall motion variants found in normal subjects. In this study we performed a retrospective review of RV free wall characteristics in a large cohort of young patients referred for ventricular arrhythmia evaluation and compared the findings with an age-matched normal cohort. …
