“…Moreover, patients with inflammatory pericarditis also often show increased septal excursion, most likely related to the decreased compliance of the inflamed pericardial layers. The added value of real-time imaging during free breathing to evaluate the hemodynamic effect of the pericardium on cardiac filling has become accepted as an essential part of an MR examination (96,97).…”

“…19 Tagged images were analyzed with CIMTag2D software (Cardiac Image Modelling, University of Auckland, Auckland, NZ) to calculate global peak systolic strain, peak systolic strain rate (myocardial deformation), and peak early diastolic strain rate (an indicator of diastolic function). 17 Quantitative parametric images of myocardial extracellular volume (ECV) were generated with manual contouring to define a region of interest in the left ventricular septum, basal and mid-ventricular level using validated formulae: ECV=[(ΔR1 myocardium)/(ΔR1 blood pool)×(1-Hct)].…”

Background-The optimum timing of surgery in asymptomatic patients with chronic severe primary degenerative mitral regurgitation (MR) remains controversial, and further markers are needed to improve decision-making. There are limited data that wall stress is increased in MR and may result in ventricular fibrosis. We investigated the hypothesis that chronic volume overload in MR is a stimulus for myocardial fibrosis using T1-mapping cardiac MRI. Methods and Results-A cross-sectional study of 35 patients (age 60±14 years) with asymptomatic moderate and severe primary degenerative MR (mean effective regurgitant orifice area, 0.45±0.25 cm) 2 with no class I indication for surgery were compared with age and sex controls. Subjects were studied with cardiopulmonary exercise testing, echocardiography, and cardiac MRI. Longitudinal and circumferential myocardial deformation was reduced with MR when left ventricular ejection fraction (67%±10%) and N-terminal pro B Natriuretic peptide (126 [76-428]

“…9 Its added ability to detect postcontrast myocardial fibrosis and infarction increases its utility in providing both the diagnosis of and prognosis in cardiomyopathies. 10,11 Chest CT is one of the most widely used imaging tests for the evaluation of respiratory diseases. Traditionally, its use in evaluating cardiac disease such as cardiomyopathies has been limited by cardiac motion artefact.…”

Objective: To assess the diagnostic accuracy of standard axial chest CT compared with cardiac MRI for cardiomyopathies. Methods: The standard axial 64-slice chest CTs of 49 patients with cardiomyopathies and 27 controls were blindly assessed for the presence of a cardiomyopathy by two independent readers. Qualitative and quantitative analysis included assessment of: (i) interatrial septal thickness, (ii) left atrial diameter, (iii) myocardial hypertrophy, thinning or fat, (iv) myocardial and papillary muscle calcification, (v) papillary muscle thickness, (vi) calcified coronary artery segments, (vii) left ventricular (LV) diameter, (viii) interventricular septal thickness and (ix) right ventricular diameters. Cardiac MRI was the gold standard. Results: There were 21 (42.9%) dilated, 16 (32.7%) hypertrophic, 8 (16.3%) ischaemic and 4 other (8.2%) (LV non-compaction 3 2, amyloid, idiopathic restrictive) patients with cardiomyopathies. An LV diameter of 47 mm, interventricular septal thickness of 14 mm and coronary artery/papillary muscle calcification on axial chest CT best distinguished dilated, hypertrophic and ischaemic cardiomyopathies from controls, respectively; kappa 5 0.45 (moderate interobserver agreement). The sensitivity (95% confidence interval), specificity, positiveand negative-predictive values (95% confidence interval) and diagnostic accuracy of chest CT in diagnosing cardiomyopathies were 68% (52-83), 100%, 100%, 66% (55-85) and 80%, respectively. Conclusion: Cardiomyopathies may be detected on standard chest CT with good sensitivity and high specificity. Advances in knowledge: It is useful to assess for an underlying cardiomyopathy on standard chest CT, especially in a patient with unexplained dyspnoea.
