简要总结
Inflammation of the heart (myocarditis) is a serious condition that can cause heart failure, abnormal heart rhythms, cardiac arrest, and death. Rapid diagnosis of this condition is key to reversing it. The purpose of this study is to determine whether myocarditis such as that which occurs with viral illness, autoimmune conditions, or certain therapies (i.e. immune checkpoint inhibitors) can be diagnosed using a new form of ultrasound imaging of the heart (echocardiography) that uses a contrast agent that is targeted to inflammation (Sonazoid).

研究组 & 干预措施
Patients with suspected Myocarditis
Patients with any degree of suspicion for myocarditis based on symptoms, lab tests, ECG, or imaging tests.
干预措施: Myocardial contrast echocardiography molecular imaging for inflammation (Diagnostic Test)
结局指标
主要结局
Diagnostic accuracy for presence/absence of ICI Myocarditis
时间窗: 3 months
The ability of of MCE molecular imaging with Sonazoid to diagnose ICI myocarditis will be determined by comparing to a gold standard (either cardiac MRI or myocardial biopsy).
