To test the hypothesis that carriers of Dutch founder mutations in cardiac myosin-binding protein C (MYBPC3), without left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) or electrocardiographic abnormalities, have diastolic dysfunction on tissue Doppler imaging (TDI), which can be used for the screening of family members in the hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) population.
