Abstract. Functional geometry of left ventricle (FGLV) refers to the dynamical change in the ventricular shape during contraction and relaxation. It has been shown that FGLV significantly contributes to the regulation of contractility and cardiac pump function in health and disease. We determined abnormalities of FGLV in patients with ischemic heart disease and dilated cardiomyopathy before and after resynchronization therapy. FGLV abnormalities are early predictors of LV pump function disturbances. FGLV recovery is accompanied with an increase in LV pump function.

Keywords: functional geometry of left ventricle
