A study of patients with hypertension to evaluate whether heart tissue is damaged due to the condition.
A prospective cohort study evaluating the role of scar and dysynchrony by MRI relative to lead delivery location. Participants received a comprehensive baseline and serial follow-up at 3, 6, and 12 months of patients undergoing CRT. Participants receive a MRI at baseline, an echocardiogram at baseline, 3 months, and 6 months, a CT at 3 months, as well as a quality of life assessment and a 6 minute hall walk at baseline, 3 months, and 6 months.
A feasibility study of MRI-based models to guide optimal lead delivery in CRT. Participants received a comprehensive baseline and serial follow-up at 3, 6, and 12 months of patients undergoing CRT. Participants receive a MRI at baseline, an echocardiogram at baseline, 3 months, and 6 months, a CT at 1 month, as well as a quality of life assessment and a 6 minute hall walk at baseline, 3 months, and 6 months.
