Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of Age-Related Interstitial Myocardial Fibrosis With Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Contrast-Enhanced T1 Mapping: MESA (Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis)
Chia Ying Liu,Yuan Chang Liu,Colin O. Wu,Anderson C. Armstrong,Gustavo J. Volpe,Rob J. van der Geest,Yongmei Liu,William G Hundley,Antoinette S. Gomes,Songtao Liu,Marcelo Souto Nacif,David A. Bluemke,Joao A.C. Lima +12 more
TL;DR: CMR parameters that have been associated with myocardial fibrosis were related to older age in the MESA study, and women had higher ECV than men but less ECV change over time.
Journal ArticleDOI
T1 Mapping in Cardiomyopathy at Cardiac MR: Comparison with Endomyocardial Biopsy
Christopher T. Sibley,Radwa A Noureldin,Neville Gai,Marcelo Souto Nacif,Marcelo Souto Nacif,Songtao Liu,Evrim B. Turkbey,James O. Mudd,Rob J. van der Geest,Joao A.C. Lima,Marc K. Halushka,David A. Bluemke +11 more
TL;DR: Cardiac MR with T1 mapping can provide noninvasive evidence of diffuse myocardial fibrosis in patients referred for evaluation of cardiomyopathy and results were the consensus of two radiologists who were blinded to histopathologic findings.
Journal ArticleDOI
The diagnosis of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy by cardiovascular magnetic resonance
Radwa A Noureldin,Songtao Liu,Marcelo Souto Nacif,Daniel P. Judge,Marc K. Halushka,Theodore P. Abraham,Carolyn Y. Ho,David A. Bluemke +7 more
TL;DR: It is likely that integrating genetic advances with enhanced phenotypic characterization of HCM with novel CMR techniques will importantly improve the understanding of this complex disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
T1 mapping of the myocardium: Intra-individual assessment of the effect of field strength, cardiac cycle and variation by myocardial region
Nadine Kawel,Marcelo Souto Nacif,Anna Zavodni,Jacquin Jones,Songtao Liu,Christopher T. Sibley,David A. Bluemke +6 more
TL;DR: Evaluated acquisition factors that may result in variation of measured T1 time and ECV including magnetic field strength, cardiac phase and myocardial region including gadolinium, found ECV is similar at field strengths of 1.5 T and 3’T.
Journal ArticleDOI
Myocardial T1 and extracellular volume fraction mapping at 3 tesla
Jason J. Lee,Songtao Liu,Marcelo Souto Nacif,Martin Ugander,Jing Han,Nadine Kawel,Christopher T. Sibley,Peter Kellman,Andrew E. Arai,David A. Bluemke +9 more
TL;DR: The 11 HB MOLLI is a faster method for high-resolution myocardial T1 mapping at 3T and ECV fractions are stable over a wide time range after contrast administration.
