A novel analytical approach to quantitative myocardial edema imaging in acute myocarditis using T2-mapping
Methods CMR data of 35 patients with clinically suspected ACM and confirmation of diagnosis by CMR according to the Lake Louise criteria (LL criteria) were retrospectively analyzed. 30 healthy volunteers (HV) served as a control. A second cohort consisting of 72 patients with clinically diagnosed ACM served as a validation cohort. All patients and HV were examined on a clinical 1.5T scanner, wh...
متن کاملA novel multiparametric imaging approach to acute myocarditis using T2-mapping and CMR feature tracking
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic potential of a novel cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) based multiparametric imaging approach in suspected myocarditis and to compare it to traditional Lake Louise criteria (LLC). METHODS CMR data from 67 patients with suspected acute myocarditis were retrospectively analyzed. Seventeen age- and gender-matched healthy subje...
متن کاملAge-dependent normal values of T2* and T2' in brain parenchyma.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Physiologic age-related T2* and T2' values are required as reference for comparison with disease-related deviations. In our study, T2* and T2' values (T2 values as control) were determined with MR imaging in healthy subjects to determine standard values and investigate age-related changes. MATERIALS AND METHODS Data of 50 patients without intraparenchymal pathology and ...
متن کاملT2 mapping for the detection of myocardial edema in patients with acute myocarditis
Background In patients with acute myocarditis, T2-weighted cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) can visualize myocardial edema and is used for one of the three recommended diagnostic CMR criteria. There are, however, significant technical problems associated with the short-tau-inversion-recovery (STIR) sequence, limiting its clinical utility. Quantitative T2 mapping technique may overcome su...
متن کاملMyocardial T2 mapping for improved detection of inflammatory myocardial involvement in acute and chronic myocarditis
Background Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) increasingly adds to clinical conformation of the diagnosis in patients with suspected myocarditis. The proposed Lake Louise Consensus Criteria ("any-two” approach) can separate from chronic forms of myocardial inflammation. However, both global enhancement ratio (GRE) and T2-weighted imaging are underutilized, due to poor reproducibility and high sus...
