chronic myocardial infarction (CMI). Concerns about safety of gadolinium-based contrast …

Purpose To determine the accuracy of multicontrast late enhancement imaging (MCLE) in
the assessment of myocardial viability and wall motion compared to the conventional wall …

The utility and role of cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) as a non‐invasive diagnostic
imaging modality has been well recognized in the field of cardiovascular disease. Use of …

Purpose: To compare—theoretically and experimentally—clinically available two‐
dimensional/three‐dimensional (2D/3D), breathhold and non‐breathhold, inversion …

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

Late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) is the most relevant tool of cardiac magnetic
resonance for tissue characterization, and it plays a pivotal role for diagnostic and …
