Time-dependent prognostic improvement by late gadolinium enhancement in dilated cardiomyopathy [PDF]
: Background: Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) represents a major cause of heart failure (HF), but current HF prediction models lack validation in DCM cohorts. Late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) predicts mortality in DCM patients.

Inflammatory Fabry Cardiomyopathy Demonstrated Using Simultaneous [18F]-FDG PET-CMR
Using hybridized [18F]-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography with cardiac magnetic resonance, we identify active myocardial inflammation and demonstrate its relationship with late gadolinium enhancement, in Fabry disease.

Altered myocardial characteristics of the preexcited segment in Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome: A pilot study with cardiac magnetic resonance imaging. [PDF]
PURPOSE:The preexcited myocardium of Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome would have different characteristics from normal myocardium and these findings might be related to persistent left ventricular systolic dysfunction.

Late-gadolinium enhancement in a subject with normal left ventricular function
A 27-year-old man visited our hospital after experiencing palpitations. His 12-lead electrocardiogram and chest radiograph were unremarkable. Blood test results showed normal plasma brain natriuretic peptide level (

Pericardial Involvement in ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction as Detected by Cardiac MRI
BackgroundPost myocardial infarction pericarditis is considered relatively rare in the current reperfusion era. The true incidence of pericardial involvement may be underestimated since the diagnosis is usually based on clinical and echocardiographic ...
