Abstract This JACC Scientific Expert Panel provides consensus recommendations for an
update of the cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) diagnostic criteria for myocardial …

Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) has become the primary tool for noninvasive
assessment of myocardial inflammation in patients with suspected myocarditis. The …

Acute myocarditis is defined as inflammation of the myocardium, most often caused by viral
infection or an autoimmune process. Myocarditis can lead to life-threatening arrhythmias or …

Objectives: The aim of this research was to identify the diagnostic performance of
gadolinium-enhanced and T2-weighted cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) in …

Background Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) can detect inflammatory myocardial
alterations in patients suspected of having acute myocarditis. There is limited information …

On the basis of available research and expert consensus, diagnostic CMR criteria have
been proposed (Lake Louise Criteria) 16 that are also part of societal publications17, 18 and …

Objectives: The aim of this study was to determine whether clinical presentation and type of
cell death in acute myocarditis might contribute to cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) …

Myocarditis is an inflammatory disease of the myocardium, and its diagnosis remains
challenging owing to a varying clinical presentation and broad spectrum of underlying …

The aetiopathogenesis of acute and chronic myocarditis is rather complex as a great variety
of infectious agents can induce cardiac inflammation. Moreover, many systemic and …

Background—Cardiovascular magnetic resonance based on the Lake Louise Criteria is
used to make the diagnosis of acute myocarditis. Novel quantitative parametric mapping …
