[HTML][HTML] Detection of elevated right ventricular extracellular volume in pulmonary hypertension using Accelerated and Navigator-Gated Look-Locker Imaging for …

Background Assessment of diffuse right ventricular (RV) fibrosis is of particular interest in
pulmonary hypertension (PH) and heart failure (HF). Current cardiovascular magnetic
resonance (CMR) T1 mapping techniques such as Modified Look-Locker inversion recovery
(MOLLI) imaging have limited resolution, but accelerated and navigator-gated Look-Locker
imaging for cardiac T1 estimation (ANGIE) is a novel CMR sequence with spatial resolution
suitable for T1 mapping of the RV. We tested the hypothesis that patients with PH would …
