In cardiovascular magnetic resonance, late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) has become the
cornerstone of myocardial tissue characterization. It is widely used in clinical routine to …

Background Late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) is a widely used cardiac magnetic
resonance imaging (MRI) technique to diagnose a broad range of ischemic and non …

Late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) imaging has become one of the cornerstones of the
core cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) examination [1]. Also known as delayed …

Background Quantification of left atrial late gadolinium enhancement is a powerful clinical
and research tool. Fibrosis burden has been shown to predict the success of pulmonary vein …

Late gadolinium enhancement is a useful tool for scar detection, based on differences in the
volume of distribution of gadolinium, an extracellular agent. The presence of fibrosis in the …

Backgrounds Synthetic late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) images are less sensitive to
inversion time (TI) and robust to motion artifact, because it is generated retrospectively by …

The use of cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging left atrial late gadolinium
enhancement (LA LGE) is increasing for fibrosis evaluation though the use is still limited to …

Late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) MRI is the non‐invasive reference standard for
identifying myocardial scar and fibrosis but has limitations, including difficulty delineating …

Background Left atrial (LA) late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) on cardiovascular magnetic
resonance (CMR) imaging is indicative of fibrosis, and has been correlated with reduced LA …

Purpose To compare the accuracy of detection and quantification of myocardial late
gadolinium enhancement (LGE) with a synthetic inversion-recovery (IR) approach with that …
