Article Synopsis
- Fabry disease (FD) is an X-linked lysosomal storage disorder linked to alpha-galactosidase A deficiency, and this study evaluates whether cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) can detect sphingolipid accumulation in the kidneys of FD patients.
- The study involved comparing native T1 values in FD patients (18 participants) and healthy subjects (38 participants) across various organs, including the kidneys, heart, spleen, and liver, using advanced imaging techniques.
- Results showed no significant differences in native T1 values in the renal cortex between FD patients and healthy individuals, but FD patients had a higher native T1 in the renal medulla and lower T1 in the heart, indicating differences in cardiac involvement but not
