Cardiac magnetic resonance T2 relaxometry in acute myocarditis correlations with myocardial function and cardiac biomarkers
Background Myocarditis is a common inflammation of the myocardium with variable symptoms, which is in daily clinical routine quite difficult to diagnose. Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging assumes an increasingly important role in the diagnosis of myocarditis by their exact functional analysis and the possibility of representation of tissue changes. The aim of this clinical trial consists in th...
متن کاملCardiac and Hepatic T2*-Weighted Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Abstract Background Iron overload is the main transfusion related side effects in patients with transfusion dependent hemoglobinopathies. Severe iron deposition in tissues leads to organ dysfunction. Many organs can be affected such as heart, liver, and endocrine organs. Cardiac failure and liver fibrosis are the consequent of Iron overload in transfusion dependent hemoglobinopathy. Magne...
متن کاملEdema and myocardial necrosis evaluated by cardiac magnetic resonance in acute myocarditis. Relationship with biomarkers and ventricular function
Methods We included 31 consecutive patients admitted with the diagnosis of acute myocarditis, confirmed by CMR in the presence of the following criteria: a) chest pain and/ or heart failure, b) elevated markers of myocardial necrosis, c) normal coronary angiography. Clinical and laboratorial evaluation (high sensitivity CRP, NTpro-BNP, troponin I, CK, CK-MB, serology and antibodies) was carried...

متن کاملT2-weighted cardiovascular magnetic resonance in acute cardiac disease
Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) using T2-weighted sequences can visualize myocardial edema. When compared to previous protocols, newer pulse sequences with substantially improved image quality have increased its clinical utility. The assessment of myocardial edema provides useful incremental diagnostic and prognostic information in a variety of clinical settings associated with acute my...
