Primary Endpoint
Clinical value of fast T1, T2, and T2* mapping of the left ventricle for the assessment of necrosis/scar, edema, and possible intramyocardial hemorrhage in patients with heart disease.

Study Overview

Brief Summary

The overall goal of this project is to evaluate the clinical potential of fast quantitative myocardial tissue characterization using recently emerged Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging (CMR) techniques to aid the diagnosis, treatment, and follow up of patients with myocardial diseases, such as ischemic heart disease, cardiomyopathies, and myocarditis.
