Abstract
In hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), abnormal left ventricular diastolic function is considered to be important as a pathophysiologic mechanism [1–3]. There are, however, very few reports which evaluate the relation between diastolic function and prognosis. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the prognostic implications of diastolic dysfunction derived from equilibrium radionuclide angiography and to compare the significance of these diastolic indices with well-recognized risk factors for an adverse prognosis in HCM.
