Article Synopsis
- Sarcoidosis is a disease that causes inflammation in different parts of the body, and it can affect the heart even if people don't have heart symptoms.
- This study looked at 55 patients who were recently diagnosed with sarcoidosis but showed no heart issues, using a special heart scan called CMR to check for heart involvement.
- The results showed that only a small number of those patients (6%) had signs of heart issues, suggesting that heart problems are rare in these cases, but the CMR scan can be helpful to find them.
