Background Children with Kawasaki disease (KD) and coronary artery lesions (CALs) can
develop myocardial ischemia, fibrosis, and abnormal contractility. We aimed to assess the …

Background Kawasaki disease (KD) potentially increases the risk of myocardial ischemia.
This study aimed to semi-quantitatively evaluate myocardial perfusion impairment using …
