Journal ArticleDOI

The annual global economic burden of heart failure

TL;DR: The overall economic cost of heart failure in 2012 was estimated at $108 billion per annum, with an aging, rapidly expanding and industrializing global population this value will continue to rise.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evaluation of techniques for the quantification of myocardial scar of differing etiology using cardiac magnetic resonance

TL;DR: Regardless of the disease under study, the FWHM technique for LGE quantification gives LGE volume mean results similar to manual quantification and is statistically the most reproducible, reducing required sample sizes by up to one-half.
Journal ArticleDOI

Diagnostic accuracy of computed tomography-derived fractional flow reserve a systematic review

TL;DR: The diagnostic accuracy of FFR-CT varies markedly across the spectrum of disease and can be used in combination with patient-specific factors to judge when the cost and risk of an invasive angiogram may safely be avoided.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Evolving Future of Instantaneous Wave-Free Ratio and Fractional Flow Reserve

TL;DR: How physiological assessment with iFR may advance its application from simply justifying to guiding revascularization is described, outlining developments for both iFR and FFR in new clinical domains beyond the confines of stable angina.
