Non-invasive imaging plays a growing role in the diagnosis and management of ischemic
heart disease from its earliest manifestations of endothelial dysfunction to myocardial …

Ischemic chronic cardiomyopathy (ICC) is still one of the most common cardiac diseases
leading to the development of myocardial ischemia, infarction, or heart failure. The …

Ischemic cardiomyopathy (ICM) is one of the most common causes of congestive heart
failure. In patients with ICM, tissue characterization with cardiac magnetic resonance …

Purpose Quantitative cardiac MRI, and more particularly T1 mapping, has become a most
important modality to characterize myocardial tissue. In this work, the value of a radial …

Background Myocardial infarction (MI) is a major cause of heart failure. Left ventricular
adverse remodeling is common post-MI. Several studies have demonstrated a correlation …

Purpose Today there is a growing interest in the quantification of late gadolinium
enhancement (LGE) in ischemic and non-ischemic cardiac pathologies. We build an …

Late gadolinium enhanced (LGE) cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging, the current
benchmark for assessment of myocardium viability, enables the identification and …

Aims Late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) visualizes scar tissue after myocardial infarction.
However, in clinically used LGE sequences, subendocardial infarcts can be missed due to …

Purpose To determine the diagnostic accuracy of volumetric interpolated breath-hold
examination sequences with fat suppression in Dixon technique (VIBE-Dixon) for cardiac …

Background This study aims to determine whether the quantification of myocardial fibrosis in
patients with Fabry disease (FD) and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) using a late …
