Excerpt

Aortic stenosis (AS) leads to diffuse fibrosis in the myocardium which may impair cardiac function. Existing techniques (late gadolinium enhancement [LGE]) are not good at detecting diffuse, as opposed to focal, fibrosis. Pre-contrast T1-mapping may identify changes in the myocardium without the need for exogenous contrast, and our aim was to investigate its ability to detect diffuse fibrosis in patients with AS. …
