MRI to Evaluate Cardiomyopathies and Inflammatory Cardiac Disease
Background. Earlier classifications of cardiomyopathies described them in terms of their morphologic characteristics (dilated, hypertrophic) or functional consequences (restrictive). The current classification of cardiomyopathies has recently been updated [1] as diseases of the myocardium that are associated with mechanical and/or electrical dysfunction that exhibit inappropriate ventricular hy...
متن کاملRole of Cardiac MR Imaging in Cardiomyopathies.
Cardiac MR imaging has made major inroads in the new millennium in the diagnosis and assessment of prognosis for patients with cardiomyopathies. Imaging of left and right ventricular structure and function and tissue characterization with late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) as well as T1 and T2 mapping enable accurate diagnosis of the underlying etiology. In the setting of coronary artery disease...
متن کاملCardiac MRI
Introduction Cardiac MR imaging allows for the examination of anatomy, function, and metabolism and its clinical use is steadily increasing. It poses unique challenges to the imaging protocols as it requires high spatial resolution over a larger volume in the presence of cardiac and breathing motion. This overview of cardiac MRI discusses methods to reduce motion artifacts and various clinical ...
متن کاملCardiomyopathies: The Value of Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Pheochromocytoma is rare and has been documented to present atypically as myocardial ischemia, arrhythmias, or congestive heart failure. In patients with pheochromocytoma, transient cardiomyopathy with hypokinesia of the basal segments of the left ventricle and hyperkinesia of the apex (an inverted Takotsubo contractile pattern) can be observed [5] . Patients with elevated cardiac biomarkers an...
متن کاملSudden Cardiac Death Sudden Death From Genetic and Acquired Cardiomyopathies
From the Aphorisms of Hippocrates to the sports fields of the twenty-first century, by both the lay public and the medical community, the cardiomyopathies have been recognized as causes of sudden cardiac death (SCD). Prevention of SCD in the cardiomyopathies is a 2-fold challenge. First, and central to clinical practice, is the need for reliable prognostication in individuals with established d...
