Mapping right ventricular myocardial mechanics using 3D cine DENSE cardiovascular magnetic resonance

BACKGROUND: The mechanics of the right ventricle (RV) are not well understood as studies of the RV have been limited. This is, in part, due to the RV's thin wall, asymmetric geometry and irregular motion. However, the RV plays an important role in cardiovascular function. This study aims to des...
