Objectives: This study assessed diffuse myocardial fibrosis (MF) by cardiac magnetic
resonance (CMR) imaging and speckle-tracking echocardiography (STE) in patients with …

Purpose To assess whether native T1 mapping provides noninvasive estimation of diffuse
myocardial fibrosis and whether it correlates with subclinical myocardial dysfunction in …

Objectives: We aimed to evaluate the incidence and patterns of late gadolinium
enhancement (LGE) in different forms of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) and to determine …

Background The presence of myocardial fibrosis is associated with worse clinical outcomes
in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) with late …

Fibrotic remodelling of the extracellular matrix is a healing mechanism necessary
immediately after myocardial injury. However, prolonged increase in myocardial fibrotic …

Objective Late gadolinium enhancement cardiac magnetic resonance (LGE-CMR) imaging
is the reference standard for non-invasive assessment of fibrosis. In hypertrophic …

Objectives: Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) was used to investigate the extracellular
compartment and myocardial fibrosis in patients with aortic stenosis, as well as their …

Aim The aim of this study was to determine the value of extracellular volume fraction (ECV)
for the non-invasive assessment of diffuse myocardial fibrosis (MF) in different stages of …

Myocardial fibrosis can arise from a range of pathological processes and its presence
correlates with adverse clinical outcomes. Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) can provide …

Objectives: The aim of the present study was to evaluate whether extracellular volume
fraction (ECV) can reliably inform on the extent of diffuse fibrosis in the simultaneous …
