Abstract
Elucidating the effects of sarcomeric variants on the hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) pheno-type is a major research priority with potential to accelerate disease-specific therapeutic development. We and others, have previously described the adverse impact of sarcomeric (Sarc+) mutations on myocardial oxygenation among patients with HCM after vasodilator stress using a standard oxygen-sensitive cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) approach. Although widely used, vasodilator stress oxygenation measured by T2-prepared steady-state free precession blood oxygen level–dependent imaging (T2-prep SSFP BOLD) suffers from low precision attributable to coil sensitivity (B1−) variations and heart rate (HR) changes. B1 variation matters when breath-hold positions differ during vasodilator provocation.
