Myocardial fibrosis in stroke survivors [PDF]

, 2015
Stroke survivors are most likely to die of cardiac death, yet few undergo comprehensive cardiac assessment to look for reversible causes. Myocardial fibrosis (MF) is not only the hallmark of cardiomyopathy, but also a substrate for sudden cardiac death ...

Segmentation of Myocardial Boundaries in Tagged Cardiac MRI Using Active Contours: A Gradient-Based Approach Integrating Texture Analysis [PDF]

, 2009
The noninvasive assessment of cardiac function is of first importance for the diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases. Among all medical scanners only a few enables radiologists to evaluate the local cardiac motion. Tagged cardiac MRI is one of them.

Case Report: Immune checkpoint-inhibitor related myotoxicity monitoring using a comprehensive cardiothoracic MRI approach: insights from a clinical case

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine
Recent advances in immunotherapy have significantly improved outcomes for cancer patients. However, therapies such as immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) can lead to immune-related adverse events, including potentially fatal ICI-myocarditis.

Transcriptomic analysis of cardiac gene expression across the life course in male and female mice

Physiological Reports, 2021
Risk for heart disease increases with advanced age and differs between sexes, with females generally protected from heart disease until menopause. Despite these epidemiological observations, the molecular mechanisms that underlie sex‐specific differences
