ratio of maximal LA end-systolic volume (LAESV) to LV end-diastolic volume (LVEDV)(English)

• may offer valuable context for distinguishing physiological from pathological cardiac remodelling. Effectively discriminates between adaptive and maladaptive atrial remodelling. LA:LV is typically ∼0.5. Lower ratios correlate with higher functional capacity and physiological remodelling, whereas ratios ≥0.75 may indicate pathological remodelling and warrant consideration of atrial pathology
