Multimodality imaging enabled safe, 4-year surveillance of a coronary-encasing cardiac paraganglioma, avoiding high-risk surgery while preserving cardiac function @UnitedImagingHC ahajrnls.org/3MLZ0B9

Early RV Reverse Remodeling (RVRR) following Transcatheter Tricuspid Valve Replacement (TTVR) - now shown by CMR New @CircImaging publication highlights the potential of TTVR to drive meaningful structural and functional cardiac recovery. doi.org/10.1161/CIRCIM…

2/ ▪️ Steeper risk gradient in women Sex-specific interpretation of plaque burden matters. doi.org/10.1161/CIRCIM…

1/ Women don’t need as much plaque to be at risk. In PROMISE CCTA data (n=4,267), MACE risk in women emerged at lower total plaque burden than in men: ▪️ HR>1 at ~20% PB in women vs ~28% in men ...

In > 1,100 pts with moderate aortic stenosis, left atrial reservoir strain (LARS) was the strongest independent predictor of cardiac death and HF hospitalization —outperforming LV GLS and traditional markers, even with preserved EF ahajrnls.org/4s21CcR
