Ferumoxytol-enhanced cardiovascular magnetic resonance detection of early stage acute myocarditis

Ferumoxytol-enhanced cardiovascular magnetic resonance detection of early stage acute myocarditis

Abstract Background The diagnostic utility of cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) is limited during the early stages of myocarditis. This study examined whether ferumoxytol-enhanced CMR (FE-CMR) could detect an earlier stage of acute myocarditis compared to gadolinium-enhanced CMR. Methods Lewis...
