Background The clinical application of cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) T 2 and T
2* mapping is currently limited as ranges for healthy and cardiac diseases are poorly …

Background: Endomyocardial biopsy (EMB) is the gold standard method for surveillance of
acute cardiac allograft rejection (ACAR) despite its invasive nature. Cardiovascular …

Abstract Purpose of Review The purpose of this review is to summarize the application of
cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) in the diagnostic and prognostic evaluation of patients …

Circulating biomarkers and imaging techniques provide independent and complementary
information to guide management of heart failure (HF). This consensus document by the …
