Abstract:Objective To explore diagnostic value of CRM in right ventricular myocardium deformation of patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM) and hypertensive left ventricular central hypertrophy (H-LVCH). Methods Totally 78 patients who were admitted in our hospital from July 2014 to December 2017 were enrolled into this prospective study. Patients were divided into two groups: HOCM (n?=?37) and H-LVCH (n?=?41). Dimensions of interventricular septum (IVS), end diastolic major dimension of right ventricle (RVEDMD), end systolic major dimension of right ventricle (RVESMD), right ventricular long axis activity (RVLAA?=?RVESMD/RVEDMD), end diastolic major area of right ventricle (RVEDMA), end systolic major area of right ventricle (RVESMA), right ventricular area changes rate (RVCR) were recorded. Results The thickness of IVS in HOCM group was significantly increased than that in H-LVCH group (P?< 0.05). RVEDMD and RVEDMA in HOCM group were comparable with those in H-LVCH group (P?> 0.05). Significant difference in RVLAA and RVESMA were identified between HOCM group and H-LVCH group (P?< 0.05). Sensitivity for the differential diagnosis of right ventricular long axis activity and right ventricular maximum area in HOCM patients and H-LVCH patients by CMR were 29.67% and 49.87%, respectively (P?< 0.001). Conclusions CMR effectively differentiates right heart function and right heart Longitudinal activity changes induced by HOCM or H-LVCH.
