Left Ventricular Structural Remodeling in Health and Disease: With Special Emphasis on Volume, Mass, and Geometry

The changes in left ventricular (LV) structure and geometry that evolve after myocardial injury or overload usually involve chamber dilation and/or hypertrophy. Such architectural remodeling can be classified as eccentric or concentric. Consideration of LV volume, mass, and relative wall thickness (...
