The purpose of this study is to investigate whether myocardial microvascular perfusion in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy improved after initiation of cardiac myosin inhibitor therapy.
Study Type
OBSERVATIONAL
Enrollment
30
Vasodilator stress myocardial contrast echocardiography will be performed at baseline and within 4 months of reaching target dose of a cardiac myosin inhibitor.
Peak hyperemic perfusion
Myocardial contrast echo-derived myocardial blood flow at peak hyperemia (produced by regadenoson)
Time frame: 3 months
Resting myocardial perfusion
Resting myocardial perfusion by MCE
Time frame: 3 months
