Altered myocardial characteristics of the preexcited segment in Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome: A pilot study with cardiac magnetic resonance imaging. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
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 cardiac sarcoidosis [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Heart Journal, 2013
A 65-year-old man was emergently admitted to our hospital for the evaluation of loss of consciousness. Electrocardiography showed sustained monomorphic ventricular tachycardia with heart rate of 215 b.p.m., which was treated with immediate cardioversion. Echocardiography revealed thinning and reduced motion of inferoseptal wall ( Panel A , …

Pericardial Involvement in ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction as Detected by Cardiac MRI

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
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 ...

Late-gadolinium enhancement in a subject with normal left ventricular function

open access: yesRadiology Case Reports, 2020
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 (

An unusual cardiac magnetic resonance finding in a patient with syphilis presenting with heart block

open access: yesThe Egyptian Journal of Radiology and Nuclear Medicine, 2023
Background Syphilis is caused by Treponema pallidum either via sexual exposure or vertical transmission during pregnancy. The disease course of infected individuals is divided into primary, secondary, and tertiary stages over a period of years.

Predictors of Left Ventricular Scar Using Cardiac Magnetic Resonance in Athletes With Apparently Idiopathic Ventricular Arrhythmias

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2021
Background In athletes with ventricular arrhythmias (VA) and otherwise unremarkable clinical findings, cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) may reveal concealed pathological substrates.

Role of Late Gadolinium Enhancement in the Assessment of Myocardial Viability [PDF]

open access: yesCureus, 2022
 Prior to any revascularization procedure for coronary artery disease, it is essential to identify viable myocardium which will likely benefit from it. In such a situation, delayed enhanced cardiac MRI is beneficial. Our study consisted of 50 patients with at least a one-month prior history of myocardial infarction (MI), abnormal findings on ...

Comprehensive Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance‐Derived Myocardial Strain Analysis Provides Independent Prognostic Value in Acute Myocarditis

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2022
Background Late gadolinium enhancement and left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction on cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) are prognostic markers, but their predictive value for incident heart failure or life‐threatening arrhythmias in acute ...

Understanding Late Gadolinium Enhancement in Pulmonary Hypertension [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation: Cardiovascular Imaging, 2010
A 68-year-old woman with a 3-year history of breathlessness (World Health Organization functional class III) was diagnosed with idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension. Investigations included a 12-lead ECG, chest radiograph, and computed tomography scan of the thorax (Figure 1, A-C). At cardiac catheterization, mean pulmonary arterial pressure and
