However, association between morphological and functional impairments with cardiac fibrosis in hereditary cardiomyopathies remains elusive. We investigated the association between echocardiography-determined cardiac dysfunction and cardiac MRI (cMRI)-detected myocardial fibrosis (late gadolinium enhancement, LE) in patients with FD with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (¡Ý50%) %K echocardiography %K Fabry %K MRI %U https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6045729/
