European Heart Journal 27(23), 2879–2888 (2006); DOI 10.1093/eurheartj/ehl336. Abstract, Methods and results: 120 healthy subjects (60 men and 60 women, aged 20–80 years), with steady-state free-precession cine imaging and three-dimensional modelling of right ventricular volumes and function. First-author byline: Alicia M. Maceira. https://academic.oup.com/eurheartj/article-abstract/27/23/2879/2887398
Primary Results and Conclusion, DOI https://doi.org/10.1093/eurheartj/ehl336 : age, body surface area and sex predict several right-ventricular parameters; some age associations persist after size normalization. This distinguishes indexed volume from a reference interval conditioned on the study population and imaging procedure.
