SUBENDOCARDIAL VIABILITY RATIO ASSOCIATES WITH ECHOCARDIOGRAPHIC PARAMETERS OF DIASTOLIC FUNCTION: INSIGHTS FROM THE BOGALUSA HEART STUDY

Recent evidence has linked coronary microvascular dysfunction to impaired diastolic function and severity in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). While echocardiography remains pivotal in the assessment of this clinical scenario, information is scant on the role of applanation
