Differential enhancement of myocardial infarction was first recognized on computed
tomographic (CT) images obtained with iodinated contrast material in the late 1970s …

Use of magnetic resonance (MR) imaging for diagnosis of cardiac diseases and treatment
monitoring is expanding. Delayed myocardial enhancement MR imaging is performed after …

Delayed myocardial enhancement MRI is a highly valuable but non-specific imaging
technique that is ancillary in the diagnosis of a variety of diseases including myocardial …

Over the past few years, cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging has rapidly
developed and is now a robust clinical tool capable of providing high-resolution images of …

Although delayed contrast material–enhanced cardiac magnetic resonance (MR) imaging
has traditionally been used to evaluate ischemic disease and myocardial viability, it is …

Contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can be used to visualize the
transmural extent of myocardial infarction with high spatial resolution. The aim of this review …

Purpose To evaluate the time course of delayed gadolinium enhancement of infarcted
myocardium by using serial contrast agent–enhanced (CE) cardiac magnetic resonance …

Objectives: We evaluated whether delayed contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging
(DCE-MRI) using an extracellular contrast agent could predict improvement of dysfunctional …

OBJECTIVE. Our objective was to assess and compare the patterns of late enhancement
(LE) in contrast-enhanced cardiac MRI caused by myocardial infarction and different …

Accurate distinction between viable and infarcted myocardium is important for assessment of
patients who have cardiac dysfunction. Through the technique of delayed-enhancement MRI …
