Association Between Interatrial Block, Left Atrial Fibrosis and Mechanical Dyssynchrony: Electrocardiography ‐Magnetic Resonance Imaging Correlation
ConclusionAdvanced IAB is associated with larger LA volumes, lower emptying fraction, and more fibrosis. Longer P ‐wave duration is also associated with more LA fibrosis and higher LA mechanical dyssynchrony.This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.
