Certainties and Uncertainties of Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Athletes
Journal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2022 Prolonged and intensive exercise induces remodeling of all four cardiac chambers, a physiological process which is coined as the “athlete’s heart”. This cardiac adaptation, however, shows overlapping features with non-ischemic cardiomyopathies, such as ...
