Normal ultrasonic myocardial reflectivity in athletes with increased left ventricular mass : a tissue characterization study

Ultrasonic integrated backscatter of myocardial walls is directly related to the morphometrically evaluated collagen content. The integrated backscatter is also increased in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, probably because of fiber disarray. The purpose of this study was to investigate myocardial tissu...
