Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) enables assessment and quantification of
morphological and functional parameters of the heart, including chamber size and function …

A key advantage of cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging over other cardiac imaging
modalities is the ability to perform detailed tissue characterization. CMR techniques continue …

Aims To determine how native myocardial T1 and extracellular volume (ECV) change with
age, both to understand aging and to inform on normal reference ranges. Methods and …

Noninvasive quantification of myocardial fibrosis in end-stage renal disease is challenging.
Gadolinium contrast agents previously used for cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) …

Background Myocardial native T1 and T2 mapping are promising techniques for quantitative
assessment of diffuse myocardial pathologies; however, due to conflicting data regarding …

Background Cardiac impairment is associated with high morbidity and mortality in
immunoglobulin light chain (AL) type amyloidosis, for which early identification and risk …

Objectives The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of the temporal and
observer variability of cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR)–measured native T1, T2, and …

Background No data are available about normal ranges for native T1 in human myocardium
using General Electric (GE) scanners. Purpose To establish normal ranges for myocardial …

Background Cardiac magnetic resonance native T1-mapping provides noninvasive,
quantitative, and contrast-free myocardial characterization. However, its predictive value in …

While an enormous number of studies have documented pathological alterations of the
myocardial native longitudinal relaxation time (T1) and the fraction of the extracellular …
