Velocity encoded cardiovascular magnetic resonance to assess left atrial appendage emptying

BACKGROUND: The presence of impaired left atrial appendage (LAA) function identifies patients who are prone to thrombus formation in the LAA and therefore being at high risk for subsequent cardioembolic stroke. LAA function is typically assessed by measurements of LAA emptying velocities using trans...
