Cardiac fibrosis plays an indispensable role in cardiac tissue homeostasis and repair after
myocardial infarction (MI). The cardiac fibroblast-to-myofibroblast differentiation and …

Pulmonary fibrosis is recognized as occurring in association with a wide and increasing
array of conditions, and it presents with a spectrum of chest CT appearances. Idiopathic …

Background and Objectives: Dark-blood late gadolinium enhancement has been shown to
be a reliable cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) method for assessing viability and …

Introduction Patients with ventricular tachyarrhythmias (VT) are at high risk of sudden
cardiac death. When appropriate, catheter ablation is modestly effective, with relatively high …

based contrast agents (GBCA) administration (“Late/Delayed Gadolinium Enhancement” …

Aims: Increased high-sensitive cardiac troponin I (hs-cTnI) levels are common in patients
with acute ischemic stroke. However, only a minority demonstrates culprit lesions on …

AIM: This study assessed the myocardial infarction (MI) using a novel fusion approach (multi-
