Objectives: The aim of this meta-analysis was to assess the diagnostic performance of various CMR imaging parameters for evaluating acute cardiac transplant rejection.
Background: Endomyocardial biopsy is the current gold standard for detection of acute cardiac transplant rejection. Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) is uniquely capable of myocardial tissue characterization and may be useful as a noninvasive alternative for the diagnosis of graft rejection.
