Proposing a novel technique to exclude the left ventricle with an assist device: insights from 4-dimensional flow magnetic resonance imaging [1]
4D flow MRI proves markedly altered flow patterns with flow velocity reduction in the LV cavity, especially around the inflow conduit after experimental left ventricular assist device implantation. As an alternative, a newly designed inflow cannula is proposed.
