Article Synopsis
- A growing body of research shows that even mild cases of viral meningitis and meningoencephalitis can lead to lasting health issues.
- This study followed 50 patients over 20 months to assess the long-term effects of these conditions on their daily social and professional lives, revealing significant cognitive and fatigue-related problems.
- Despite improvements over time, 67% of patients still experienced persistent symptoms, with about 30% reporting that these issues affected their everyday activities.
Background: Left atrial (LA) dilatation is associated with a large variety of cardiac diseases. Current cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) strategies to measure LA volumes are based on multi-breath-hold multi-slice acquisitions, which are time-consuming and susceptible to misregistration.
Aim: To develop a time-efficient single breath-hold 3D CMR acquisition and reconstruction method to precisely measure LA volumes and function.
