Key result
Multiparametric cardiac MRI tracks stage-specific progression from inflammation to fibrosis in a myocarditis mouse model.
Why the study?
Can multiparametric cardiac MRI monitor stage-specific myocardial tissue changes in an autoimmune myocarditis mouse model?
Can multiparametric cardiac MRI monitor stage-specific myocardial tissue changes in an autoimmune myocarditis mouse model?
Multiparametric cardiac MRI, specifically T2 mapping and extracellular volume fraction, can effectively characterize stage-specific tissue changes in autoimmune myocarditis.
Hypothesis-generating for MRI myocarditis staging in animals; leaves open human translation before clinical use.
Multiparametric cardiac MRI depicted dynamic, region-specific progression from inflammation to fibrosis in autoimmune myocarditis, with T2 mapping and extracellular volume fraction supporting stage-specific tissue characterization.
