Electromechanical activation and recovery wave imaging for pediatric mitral valve disease characterization.
Mitral valve (MV) disease, particularly MV prolapse (MVP) and mitral regurgitation (MR), affects 2 to 5% of the population and poses a substantial arrhythmogenic risk, with 43% of MVP patients developing arrhythmias. Although less common in children, the absence of comorbidities can uniquely isolate early electromechan...
