Characteristics and Prognostic Importance of Myocardial Fibrosis in Patients with Dilated Cardiomyopathy Assessed by Contrast-Enhanced Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging
INTRODUCTION Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Contrast-enhanced cardiac MRI (CE-CMR) can detect potentially prognostic myocardial fibrosis in DCM. We investigated the role of CE-CMR in New Zealand patients with DCM, both Maori and non-Maori, including the characteristics and prognostic importance of fibrosis. METHODS One hundred and three pa...
متن کاملassessing mitral regurgitation in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy using 3.0t cardiac magnetic resonance imaging: correlation with morphological and functional abnormalities
results of the 41 patients with dcm, echocardiography examination revealed 11 patients (27%) without mitral regurgitation and 12 (29%) with mild, 11 (27%) with moderate, and seven (17%) with severe mitral regurgitation. all of the morphological and functional parameters of left ventricle, atrium and mitral valve in dcm patients were greater than those in healthy subjects (all p < 0.05), except ...
متن کاملCardiac magnetic resonance imaging of myocardial contrast uptake and blood flow in patients affected with idiopathic or familial dilated cardiomyopathy.
Idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy (IDC) is characterized by left ventricular (LV) enlargement with systolic dysfunction, other causes excluded. When inherited, it represents familial dilated cardiomyopathy (FDC). We hypothesized that IDC or FDC would show with cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) increased myocardial accumulation of gadolinium contrast at steady state and decreased baseline myocard...
متن کاملDeterminants of left ventricular mass and hypertrophy in hemodialysis patients assessed by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is an independent risk factor for premature cardiovascular death in hemodialysis (HD) patients and one of the three forms of uremic cardiomyopathy. Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) is a volume-independent technique to assess cardiac structure. We used CMR to assess the determinants of left ventricular mass (LVM) and LVH in HD p...
