Abstract

Background: Late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) has long been regarded asthe reference standard for noninvasive detection and quantification of myocardial infarction in ischemic heart disease.While LGE provides robust visualization of focal replacement fibrosis, it has important limitations, including reducedsensitivity for diffuse interstitial fibrosis, dependence on gadolinium-based contrast agents, and limited ability to characterize dynamic or subtle myocardial injury.
