Athlete's Heart: A Multimodal Approach – From Physiological to Pathological Cardiac Adaptations provides a complete overview of all adaptations of the heart to sport practice by highlighting the different diagnosis between athlete’s heart and pathological remodeling. Written by international experts in the field, chapters discuss ECG findings, echocardiogram data, cardiac magnetic resonance and new forms of multimodality imaging, providing readers with evidence-based guidance on how to differentiate athlete's heart from cardiomyopathies.

Athlete's heart is the term given to a constellation of cardiac structural, functional and electrical remodeling that accompanies regular athletic training. Due to the substantial phenotypic overlap between electrical and structural changes observed in the physiological athletic heart remodeling and pathological changes resulted from inherited or acquired cardiomyopathies, distinguishing between adaptive and maladaptive cardiovascular response to exercise is a challenging task.

Reviews for Athlete’s Heart: A Multimodal Approach – From Physiological to Pathological Cardiac Adaptations

""...an up-to-date, detailed overview of the changes that occur in athlete's heart, both physiologically and pathologically,… [including] significant information on different testing modalities and expected results related to these cardiac changes, as well as discussions on the roles that drug use and genetics play in athletes’ cardiac manifestations…. The variety of different images and flowcharts throughout the book are extremely beneficial to understanding athlete’s heart and making good clinical decisions. …[A] high-quality resource for physicians and providers eager to know more about athlete’s heart and how to recognize normal and abnormal cardiac changes in a variety of patients. The organization is clear and concise, allowing for ease of readability.” --©Doody’s Review Service, 2023, William Dean, MD Candidate (East Tennessee State University Quillen College of Medicine)
