Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is regarded as an inherited cardiac disorder caused by autosomal dominant mutations.It has the remarkable heterogeneity of hereditary capacity,clinical phenotype,clinical course and prognosis,thus the diagnosis and treatment of this disease is challenging.Assistant examinations,such as Doppler tissue imaging,quantitative tissue velocity imaging,tissue strain imaging,cardiac magnetic resonance and late gadolinium enhancement,are important to early diagnose,guide management and judge prognosis for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.This paper reviews the progresses of assistant examinations in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
