Recent Advances in T1 and T2 Mapping in the Assessment of Fulminant Myocarditis by Cardiac Magnetic Resonance

This review was undertaken to summarise recent data relating to T1 and T2 relaxation times in the assessment of myocarditis using cardiac MRI, and the effect new studies have had on the established diagnostic criteria, leading to recently proposed revised criteria for the cardiac MRI assessment of myocarditis. In 2018, updates to the 2009 Lake Louise Criteria (LLC) were proposed, based on studies showing improved accuracy of T1 mapping...
