Myocardial remodeling in valvular heart disease: pathophysiology, multimodality imaging and treatment implications

Valvular cardiomyopathy has emerged as a key concept linking valvular heart disease (VHD) with myocardial remodeling and the development of heart failure (HF). This state-of-the-art review provides a comprehensive overview of pathophysiological mechanisms, multimodality imaging, and implication for valve interventions across the spectrum of VHD. We systematically address HF in the context of aortic valve… Continue reading Myocardial remodeling in valvular heart disease: pathophysiology, multimodality imaging and treatment implications
