May support CMR with gadolinium delayed-enhancement for arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy assessment; leaves open prospective validation before clinical adoption.
This review highlights the utility of CMR and gadolinium delayed-enhancement techniques for tissue characterization and the diagnosis of arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathies.
Macedo et al. (2006) conducted a review in Arrhythmias and cardiomyopathies. Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) was evaluated. Cardiovascular magnetic resonance, particularly with gadolinium delayed-enhancement techniques, shows promising potential for the diagnosis and assessment of arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathies.
