Although mortality after ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (MI) is on the decline,
the number of patients developing heart failure as a result of MI is on the rise. Apart from …

Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging allows comprehensive assessment of
myocardial function and tissue characterization in a single examination after acute ST …

Background Acute chest pain with mild troponin rise and inconclusive diagnosis after clinical
evaluation represents a diagnostic challenge. Triple-rule-out (TRO) CT may exclude …

Background Myocardial infarction (MI) leads to complex changes in left ventricular (LV)
haemodynamics that are linked to clinical outcomes. We hypothesize that LV blood flow …

Highlights What Is Already Known and How This Shapes the Future Highly controlled
experimental studies have illustrated the importance of ischaemia time in relation to myocyte …

Background No data are available about normal ranges for native T1 in human myocardium
using General Electric (GE) scanners. Purpose To establish normal ranges for myocardial …

Non-invasive identification and differentiation of myocardial diseases represents the primary
objectives of cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) longitudinal relaxation time (T1) and …

Objective To evaluate the feasibility of texture analysis on non-contrast-enhanced T1 maps
of cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging for the diagnosis of myocardial injury in …

Although late gadolinium enhancement on cardiac magnetic resonance imaging remains
the reference standard for scar assessment, it does not provide quantitative information …

Background: Left ventricular global longitudinal strain (LV GLS) is a superior predictor of
adverse cardiac events in patients with myocardial infarction and heart failure. We …
