Abstract

AIMS: This study aimed to evaluate ventricular diastolic properties using three-dimensional echocardiography and tissue Doppler imaging at rest and during exercise in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) patients with borderline evidence of diastolic dysfunction at rest.
