  • Cielmar G Abarca
چکیده

Background Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a disease of autoinmune origin that may involve numerous internal organs of the body. It is associated with high cardiovascular morbility and mortality. The cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) provides us with a global evaluation of patients with active SLE and clinical suspicion of acute myocarditis. OBJETIVES The aim of study was the identification of cardiac alterations in patients with active SLE and clinical suspicion of acute myocarditis.

Standardised postprocessing of native T2 in detection and discrimination of myocarditis - comparison with native T1 mapping

Background T2 mapping by cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) has been recently proposed as a robust and accurate technique to identify the presence myocardial inflammation. Standardization of post-processing, including assessment of reproducibility and discrimination between health and disease, is necessary for implementation of this technique in clinical practice. Acute myocarditis is char...

The Correlation between Left and Right Ventricular Ejection Fractions in Patients with Ischemic Heart Disease, Documented by Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Introduction: The correlation between right and left ventricular ejection fractions (RVEF and LVEF, respectively) has been studied in only a small number of patients with a marked decrease in RVEF and LVEF. The aim of the present study was to compare LVEF and RVEF in patients with ischemic heart disease. RVEF and LVEF were measured by Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance (CMR) imaging. Materials a...
