What the study is about

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.

Being studied: Cardiac Magnetic Resonance (CMR) imaging techniques

Conditions: Cardiomyopathy, Myocarditis, Ischemic Heart Disease
