چکیده
Background It is well known that the DCM patients having Late Gadolinium Enhancement at Mid-layer of LV septal wall (Mid-LGE) shows poor prognosis compared to the case not having Mid-LGE However, about the other histopathological differences by the existence of Mid-LGE, it is not clear. On the other hand, in recent years, it became possible to calculate ECV from measurement of T1 value of the myocardium before and after of enhanced imaging which used the Modified Look-Locker Inversion Recovery(MOLLI) method, and the usefulness in the quantitative evaluation of histopathological changes, such as diffuse fibrosis observed in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, has been reported. We will study about the difference of extra cellular volume(ECV) calculated with T1mapping in DCM with and without LGE

Myocardial fibrosis delineation in late gadolinium enhancement images of Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy patients using deep learning methods
Introduction: Accurate delineation of myocardial fibrosis in Late Gadolinium Enhancement on Cardiac Magnetic Resonance (LGE-CMR) has a crucial role in the assessment and risk stratification of HCM patients. As this is time-consuming and requires expertise, automation can be essential in accelerating this process. This study aims to use Unet-based deep learning methods to automate the mentioned ...
متن کاملLate gadolinium enhancement by cardiovascular magnetic resonance provides prognostic information in symptomatic alcoholic cardiomyopathy
Background Previous studies have demonstrated that late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) on cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR)predicted independently cardiac adverse outcomes in dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). ACM patients did not have a better outcome than DCM and prognosis was poorer after development of heart failure. There is no report about the association between alcoholic cardiomyopathy (...

متن کاملFrequency and variability of late gadolinium "mid-wall" enhancement(MLE) depending on observer experience, image quality and underlying disease
Background Late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) in cardiac MRI (cMRI) has been described as a valid tool to discriminate between cardiac diseases. It has been postulated that MLE especially occurs in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) and myocarditis with a prognostic impact in these patients. Nevertheless, it can be difficult to differentiate true MLE from common artifacts as motion blur,...
متن کاملMyocardial fibrosis imaging based on T1-mapping and extracellular volume fraction (ECV) measurement in muscular dystrophy patients: proof of additional diagnostic value compared to conventional late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) imaging
Background Cardiac involvement with progressive myocardial fibrosis leading to dilated cardiomyopathy is a major cause of death in muscular dystrophy patients. Extracellular volume fraction (ECV) measurement based on T1-mapping preand post-contrast promises the detection of early “diffuse” myocardial fibrosis that cannot be depicted by conventional contrast-imaging based on late gadolinium enha...
