Date of Publication: 2024. | Journal: | International Journal of Cardiovascular Imaging | Abstract: | Myocardial fibrosis is a common endpoint of many cardiac diseases and increasingly recognized as a predictor of heart failure, arrhythmia, and death. Recent studies have utilised cardiac computed tomography (CT) scans with delayed phase imaging to quantify diffuse fibrosis of the myocardium. CT extracellular volume (CT-ECV) measurement correlates well with CMR and histological myocardial fibrosis. Furthermore, CT-ECV predicts outcomes such as death, heart failure and arrhythmia in various disease states. This review summarizes the rationale and methodology behind CT-ECV measurement and provides a detailed summary of the current clinical evidence for the use of CT-ECV.Copyright © The Author(s) 2024. | DOI: | https://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s10554-024-03226-4 | PubMed URL: | 39400790 [https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/?term=39400790] | URI: | https://repository.monashhealth.org/monashhealthjspui/handle/1/52675 | Type: | Review | Subjects: | cardiac muscle cardiomyopathy computer assisted tomography heart arrhythmia |
