Advanced Cardiac MRI Techniques for Tissue Characterization with Relevance for Diagnosing CTR-CVT
| Tissue | MRI parameter |
|---|---|
| Edema and inflammation | T2-weighted cardiac MRI; T1/T2 parametric mapping |
| Diffuse fibrosis | T1-weighted cardiac MRI; pre- and postcontrast T1 mapping; extracellular volume fraction |
| Focal fibrosis and scarring | Late gadolinium enhancement |
