As a medical professional with expertise in cardiology, I can explain the term "left atrial enlargement" and its implications for a patient's health.
Left atrial enlargement (LAE) refers to the dilation or stretching of the left atrium, which is the upper left chamber of the heart. The left atrium is responsible for receiving oxygen-rich blood from the lungs and then contracting to pump this blood into the left ventricle, which subsequently sends it out to the rest of the body. Enlargement of the left atrium is often a sign of underlying heart disease and can result from various conditions.
