Most patients survive acute myocardial infarction (MI). Yet this encouraging development
has certain drawbacks: heart failure (HF) prevalence is increasing and patients affected tend …

Based on conventional cine sequences of cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR), feature
tracking (FT) is an emerging tissue tracking technique that evaluates myocardial motion and …

Background: Our goal was to evaluate the ability of cardiovascular magnetic resonance for
detecting and predicting cardiac dysfunction in patients receiving cancer therapy. Left …

The diagnosis of heart failure usually includes a global functional assessment, such as
ejection fraction measured by magnetic resonance imaging. However, these metrics have …

Background Myocardial deformation assessment by cardiovascular magnetic resonance-
feature tracking (CMR-FT) has incremental prognostic value over volumetric analyses …

Aims Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) is characterized by
ventricular dysfunction and ventricular arrhythmias (VA). Adequate arrhythmic risk …

Feasibility of automated volume-derived cardiac functional evaluation has successfully been
demonstrated using cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging. Notwithstanding …

Objectives The analysis of myocardial deformation using feature tracking in cardiovascular
MR allows for the assessment of global and segmental strain values. The aim of this study …

Background Abnormal global longitudinal strain (GLS) has been independently associated
with adverse cardiac outcomes in both obstructive and nonobstructive hypertrophic …

Background Microvascular obstruction (MVO) and Late Gadolinium Enhancement (LGE)
assessed in cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) are associated with adverse outcome in …
