Figure 9From: Measuring aortic pulse wave velocity using high-field cardiovascular magnetic resonance: comparison of techniquesLV volume and filling rate in diastolic heart failure. LV volume (left) and filling rate (right) for a diastolic heart failure patient (solid) and a healthy volunteer (dashed). Diastolic heart failure is characterized by a major filling component at the late atrial phase compared to early filling phase (arrows).Back to article page
