Diagnostic and prognostic role of late gadolinium enhancement in cardiomyopathies

open access: yesEuropean Heart Journal Supplements, 2023
Abstract Late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) is the most relevant tool of cardiac magnetic resonance for tissue characterization, and it plays a pivotal role for diagnostic and prognostic assessment of cardiomyopathies. The pattern of presentation of LGE allows differential diagnosis between ischaemic and non-ischaemic heart disease with ...

Ischemic Late Gadolinium Enhancement

Journal of Thoracic Imaging, 2013
While research exploring the utility of intravascular gadolinium based contrast agents (GBCA), such as gadofosveset (Vasovist, ABLAVAR) is ongoing, cardiac MR is currently routinely performed with administration of standard extracellular GBCAs, e.g. Gd-DTPA (Magnevist) or Gd-BOPTA (Multihance).

The Prognostic Impact of Myocardial Late Gadolinium Enhancement

Cardiology in Review, 2014
Cardiovascular magnetic resonance using late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) provides a unique opportunity to assess myocardial tissue in vivo. LGE enables tissue characterization in ischemic and nonischemic cardiomyopathies and other cardiac diseases. LGE is associated with adverse clinical outcomes across a range of different cardiac conditions and may ...

Late gadolinium-enhanced cardiac magnetic resonance

Current Cardiology Reports, 2008
Recent advances in cardiovascular magnetic resonance have made it an important clinical tool. Late gadolinium enhancement imaging after gadolinium administration is now a well-validated and practical test to assess myocardial scarring. Due to its high spatial resolution, late gadolinium enhancement is much more sensitive in detecting small infarctions ...

Late Gadolinium Enhancement in Non-Compaction Cardiomyopathy

Revista Española de Cardiología (English Edition), 2009
The European Society Cardiology of currently considers the non-compaction cardiomyopathy as an un-classified cardiomyopathy.1 It is characterised by the presence of numerous and prominent trabeculations together with deep intertrabecular recesses in a portion of the ventricular wall, principally at the lateral, and apical level, as a result of a ...

Early and late gadolinium enhancement

2018
Abstract The peculiar features of gadolinium-chelated contrast agents and the development of contrast-enhanced inversion recovery technique in the late 1990s formed the basis of early and late gadolinium enhancement imaging, revolutionizing the application of magnetic resonance imaging in patients with cardiac diseases.

Late Gadolinium Enhancement Imaging

2015
Late gadolinium enhancement cardiac magnetic resonance (LGE-CMR) has become a powerful and indispensable tool for the characterization of myocardial fibrosis and scar. LGE images can be acquired using any one of a number of fast T1-weighted gradient echo sequences, approximately 10–20 min post-injection of contrast media.

Takotsubo cardiomyopathy with late gadolinium enhancement

2021
Clinical History: A 68-year-old woman with previous history of hypercholesterolemia and anxiety came to our ER with sudden chest pain radiating to the jaw, as well as palpitations. ECG showed inferior ST elevation and cardiac enzymes were slightly elevated. Coronary angiography results came back as normal.

Late gadolinium enhancement in early repolarization syndrome

Heart Rhythm
In patients with Brugada syndrome, myocardial fibrosis can be identified through epicardial biopsy or cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging with late gadolinium enhancement (LGE). However, the myocardial alterations in patients with early repolarization syndrome (ERS) remain poorly elucidated.The objective of this study was to investigate the ...

Utility of late gadolinium enhancement in pediatric cardiac MRI

Pediatric Radiology, 2015
Late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) cardiac magnetic resonance (MR) imaging sequence is increasingly used in the evaluation of pediatric cardiovascular disorders, and although LGE might be a normal feature at the sites of previous surgeries, it is pathologically seen as a result of extracellular space expansion, either from acute cell damage or chronic ...
