Linear Late Gadolinium Enhancement In The Basal Anterior Septum And Lateral Wall May Represent The Anterior Septal Perforator Artery And Circumflex Artery, Respectively: A CMR And CCTA Comparison Study
Abstract:Purpose: The purpose of this paper was to verify that the linear high-intensity signal on late gadolinium enhancement-cardiac magnetic resonance (LGE-CMR) may represent the contrast enhancement of vessels rather than scars or fibrosis, and to assess whether this linear high-intensity signal will affect the quantification of myocardial fibrosis in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM).Methods: A total of 58 patients who underwent both coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) and LGE-CMR in our … Show more
