Cardiac segmental analysis in left ventricular noncompaction: experience in a pediatric population.
J Am Soc Echocardiogr. 2010; (1): 46-53
Echocardiography has been used to diagnose and describe left ventricular noncompaction (LVNC). No other study has investigated LVNC using the 16-segment model described by the American Heart Association and the American Society of Echocardiography in children, some of whom have congenital heart disease. Using the ratio of noncompaction to compaction, the authors analyzed the 16 segments and determined if severity was correlated with poor outcomes in a pediatric population.
