Does cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR)-derived myocardial strain measurement predict poor outcomes in patients with acute myocarditis?
CMR-derived myocardial strain is a useful predictor of both MACE and incomplete LV functional recovery in patients with acute myocarditis.
Lee et al. (2017) studied this question.
