Why the study?
Does the multi-echo Dixon fat and water separation method detect fibro-fatty infiltration in the myocardium of patients with chronic MI or suspected ARVC/D?
Does the multi-echo Dixon fat and water separation method detect fibro-fatty infiltration in the myocardium of patients with chronic MI or suspected ARVC/D?
Multi-echo Dixon methods for fat and water separation can be implemented both pre-contrast and with late enhancement to detect myocardial fibro-fatty infiltration.
