Role of cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging in arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia
Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia (ARVD) is a genetic cardiomyopathy characterized clinically by ventricular arrhythmias and progressive right ventricular (RV) dysfunction. The histopathologic hallmark is fibro-fatty replacement of RV myocardium. It is inherited in an autosomal pattern with variable penetrance. ARVD is unique in that it most commonly presents in young, otherwise health...
متن کاملArrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy mimics: role of cardiovascular magnetic resonance
BACKGROUND Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) is commonly used in patients with suspected arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) based on ECG, echocardiogram and Holter. However, various diseases may present with clinical characteristics resembling ARVC causing diagnostic dilemmas. The aim of this study was to explore the role of CMR in the differential diagnosis of patient...
متن کاملThe Role of Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging in the Evaluation of Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Dysplasia
Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy/dysplasia (ARVC/D) is a cardiac muscle disorder characterized pathologically by fibrofatty replacement of the right ventricular (RV) myocardium [1]. In the early stage of the disease, structural changes may be confined to, the so called "triangle of dysplasia" in the RV. Clinical expression ranges from an asymptomatic phenotype, arrhythmias or eve...
متن کاملClinical impact of cardiovascular magnetic resonance in evaluation for possible arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia/cardiomyopathy
Methods Patients referred for assessment of ARVD/C were evaluated. Using 2010 ARVD/C Task Force criteria, clinical history, family history, ECG and other test results were evaluated with and without CMR findings to determine definite, borderline or possible ARVD/C. CMR included assessment of right ventricular(RV) size, function, and regional wall motion(RWM). For alternative diagnoses, tissue c...
