Left ventricular (LV) myocardial stiffness (MS) is elevated in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and hence has the potential to be used as a diagnostic tool. Current clinical techniques to estimate LV MS are invasive in nature and provides global stiffness measurements. Therefore, in this study, we implement cardiac magnetic resonance to investigate temporal alteration in LV MS over a two month period of disease progression in a porcine model induced with HFpEF. The alteration in LV MS is compared against change in mean LV pressure, LV thickness, circumferential strain and MRI relaxometry parameters.
