Fifty percent of the heart failure patients have
diastolic dysfunction with preserved ejection fraction
(HFpEF), and traditionally echocardiography is used for
evaluating diastolic dysfunction due to its superior
temporal resolution. We propose LV volume based metrics
as a MR based index that is comparable to conventional
echo based index for the evaluation of diastolic
dysfunction. The results from this pilot study suggest
that it is feasible to evaluate both systolic and
diastolic function with a single set of high-temporal
resolution cine SSFP images acquired during free
breathing.
