Award for research on cardiac imaging to study Primary Aldosteronism's impact on heart failure and cardiovascular risk, focusing on targeted treatments.
Description
This project aims to understand the mechanisms of Primary Aldosteronism (PA) leading to Heart Failure with preserved Ejection Fraction (HFpEF) using cardiac imaging tools. It involves physiologic imaging techniques and investigates the relationship between PA and cardiovascular risk, with a focus on targeted treatment using mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists.
