Myocardial Fibrosis in Aortic Stenosis A Study on Echocardiography and Cardiac MRI Correlation
Introduction: In the context of aortic stenosis (AS), myocardial fibrosis remains a critical marker for assessing heart health. Recent research from the University of Catania sheds light on the connection between Global Longitudinal Strain (GLS), echocardiographic findings, and cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging in diagnosing early-stage fibrosis.

Linking Myocardial Fibrosis to Sudden Cardiac Death in HCM
Introduction: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is the most prevalent cardiac genetic disorder, affecting approximately 0.2% of the general population. It is characterized by myocardial hypertrophy, fibrosis, and an increased risk of sudden cardiac death (SCD). This systematic review investigates the role of late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) in cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging as a predictor of…
