Why the study?
Diagnosis of immune checkpoint inhibitor-induced cardiotoxicity can be challenging, while cardiac magnetic resonance represents the diagnostic tool of choice in clinically stable patients with suspected myocarditis.
Does cardiac magnetic resonance improve the diagnosis of immune checkpoint inhibitor-associated myocarditis in clinically stable cancer patients?

CMR may aid ICI-myocarditis diagnosis in stable patients; proposed algorithm is hypothesis-generating and requires prospective validation.
Does cardiac magnetic resonance improve the diagnosis of immune checkpoint inhibitor-associated myocarditis in clinically stable cancer patients?
Cardiac magnetic resonance is highlighted as the diagnostic tool of choice for clinically stable patients with suspected immune checkpoint inhibitor-associated myocarditis.
