A Novel Diagnostic Score Integrating Atrial Dimensions to Differentiate between the Athlete’s Heart and Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Cardiomyopathy

Abstract

ARVC patients present with significantly larger RA compared to athletes, resulting in a greater RAVI/LAVI ratio. Our novel diagnostic score includes readily available clinical parameters and has a high diagnostic accuracy to differentiate between ARVC and the athlete's heart.
