Left ventricular function assessment including or excluding trabeculations in left ventricular non-compaction, a preliminary case-control cardiac magnetic resonance study.

Depending whether trabeculations were included or not, LVEF measurements were significantly different between patients with LVNC and controls. These distinctive measurements might be used as an adjunctive clinical tool to help confirm the diagnosis of LVNC.
