Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is characterized by myocardial disarray, hypertrophy, and fibrosis. Reduced global longitudinal strain and presence of late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) have been associated with an adverse prognosis. This study evaluated 3D principal and conventional strain characteristics of non-enhanced myocardium in patients with HCM. 3D principal and conventional strain analysis was conducted in 51 HCM patients and 38 healthy controls. Principal strain was reduced within the non-enhanced myocardium of HCM as compared with controls (maximum principal: 51.5 ± 23.7 vs. 75.1 ± 21.4%, P < 0.0001; minimum principal: - 18.4 ± 4.0 vs. - 20.1 ± 2.9%, P < 0.05). Principal strain within the non-enhanced myocardium was incrementally reduced in HCM patients with extensive global LGE ( ≥ 15%) (maximum principal: 41.6 ± 17.5 vs. 56.9 ± 25.9%, P < 0.05; minimum principal: - 16.9 ± 3.9 vs. - 19.1 ± 4.0%, P = 0.1), as was longitudinal ( - 10.5 ± 2.6 vs. - 12.7 ± 2.6%, P < 0.05) and circumferential strain ( - 11.0 ± 2.7 vs. - 14.0 ± 2.9%, P < 0.01). Principal strain within non-enhanced myocardium was significantly correlated with indexed LV mass (P < 0.0001), maximum (P = 0.0008), and mean wall thickness (P < 0.0001), but not LGE (P = 0.0841). In adjusted analysis, all strain measures within non-enhanced myocardium were independently associated with indexed LV mass (maximum principal: P = 0.0003; minimum principal: P = 0.0039; longitudinal: P = 0.0015; circumferential: P = 0.0002; radial: P = 0.0023). 3D principal strain of non-enhanced myocardium was significantly reduced in HCM patients as compared with controls, and was incrementally reduced among patients with more extensive global LGE. Comprehensive strain assessment may be considered in routine CMR assessment of HCM patients.

Objective: This study aimed to develop and validate models using radiomics features on a native T1 map from cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) to predict left ventricular reverse remodeling (LVRR) in patients with nonischemic dilated cardiomyopathy (NIDCM).
Materials And Methods: Data from 274 patients with NIDCM who underwent CMR imaging with T1 mapping at Severance Hospital between April 2012 and December 2018 were retrospectively reviewed. Radiomic features were extracted from the native T1 maps.

A 77-year-old man underwent radiofrequency catheter ablation of incessant ventricular arrhythmias (VAs) originating from the right ventricular (RV) moderator band (MB). Activation mapping during the VAs exhibited a centrifugal pattern with the earliest activation site (EAS) on the RV septum. A local impedance (LI)-guided radiofrequency application targeting the EAS with a maximum power output of 50W successfully eliminated the VAs and resulted in an LI drop of up to 35 Ω.

Objectives: The cardiac cycle might impair the reproducibility of radiomics features of cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) cine images, yet this issue has not been addressed in the previous research. We aim to evaluate whether radiomics features of CMR cine images vary during the cardiac cycle and investigate the reproducibility of radiomics features of CMR cine images.
Methods: This retrospective study enrolled 59 healthy adults who underwent CMR examination.

Rationale And Objectives: Cardiac indices can predict disease severity and survival in a multitude of respiratory and cardiovascular diseases. Herein, we hypothesized that CT-measured cardiac indices are correlated with severity of lung involvement and can predict survival in patients with COVID-19.
Materials And Methods: Eighty-seven patients with confirmed COVID-19 who underwent chest CT were enrolled.
