2. Left ventricular hypertrophy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Left_ventricular_hypertrophy

   Left ventricular mass can be further estimated based on geometric assumptions of ventricular shape using the measured wall thickness and internal diameter. [7] Average thickness of the left ventricle, with numbers given as 95% prediction interval for the short axis images at the mid-cavity level are: [ 8 ]

3. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypertrophic_cardiomyopathy

   Often, symptoms mimic those of congestive heart failure (esp. activity intolerance and dyspnea), but treatment of each is different. Beta blockers are used in both cases, but treatment with diuretics, a mainstay of CHF treatment, will exacerbate symptoms in hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy by decreasing ventricular preload volume and ...

4. Ventricular hypertrophy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ventricular_hypertrophy

   Rowers, cyclists, and cross-country skiers tend to have the largest hearts, with an average left ventricular wall thickness of 1.3 centimeters, compared to 1.1 centimeters in average adults. Though eccentric hypertrophy is termed 'athlete's heart' it is typically only found in individuals who are aerobically conditioned.

5. Athletic heart syndrome - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Athletic_heart_syndrome

   Bradycardia is a slower than normal heartbeat, at around 40–60 beats per minute. Cardiomegaly is the state of an enlarged heart, and cardiac hypertrophy the thickening of the muscular wall of the heart, specifically the left ventricle, which pumps oxygenated blood to the aorta. Especially during an intensive workout, more blood and oxygen are ...

6. Right ventricular hypertrophy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right_ventricular_hypertrophy

   Echocardiography can be used to directly visualise right ventricular wall thickness. The preferred technique is the trans-oesophageal approach giving a view of 4 chambers. The normal thickness of a right ventricular free wall ranges from 2-5 millimetres, with a value above 5 mm considered to be hypertrophic. [10]

9. Arteriosclerosis - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arteriosclerosis

   Arteriosclerosis, literally meaning "hardening of the arteries", is an umbrella term for a vascular disorder characterized by abnormal thickening, hardening, and loss of elasticity [3] of the walls of arteries; [4] this process gradually restricts the blood flow to one's organs and tissues and can lead to severe health risks brought on by atherosclerosis, which is a specific form of ...
