LV WALL THICKNESS DOES NOT PREDICT SUDDEN CARDIAC DEATH RISK IN ADULTS WITH HYPERTROPHIC CARDIOMYOPATHY: A CONTEMPORARY CARDIOVASCULAR MAGNETIC RESONANCE STUDY

Extreme left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), defined on echo as a maximum LV wall thickness of ≥30 mm is regarded as a risk factor for sudden cardiac death (SCD) in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) is increasingly being used to evaluate HCM and allows wall
