Background: T1 mapping using cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) was recently proposed as a promising non-contrast imaging technique for the assessment of diffuse myocardial fibrosis (MF) in aortic stenosis (AS).
Aims: To provide reference values for native T1 mapping at 3 Tesla magnetic field strength in subjects with moderate or severe AS and in control subjects; to identify factors associated with the presence of diffuse MF in severe AS; to assess the regional distribution of diffuse MF; and to compare the level of diffuse MF in the different types of AS, stratified by flow and gradient patterns.
Methods: Retrospective study based on 160 consecutive patients with moderate (n=11) to severe (n=149) AS and 47 control subjects referred for CMR.

Background: Recently, 1.5-Tesla cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) was reported to provide a reliable alternative to transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) for the quantification of aortic stenosis (AS) severity. Few data are available using higher magnetic field strength MRI systems in this context.

Background: The purpose of the study was to determine the long-term prognostic value of normal adenosine stress cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) in patients referred for evaluation of myocardial ischemia.
Methods: We reviewed 300 consecutive patients (age 65 ± 11 years, 74% male) with suspected or known coronary disease and normal wall motion who had undergone adenosine stress CMR negative for ischemia and scar. Most patients were at intermediate risk of coronary artery disease.

A paucity of data on outcome of coronary multislice computed tomography (CT) is available. The aim of this study was to assess the long-term follow-up of 64-slice CT in a homogenous patient group. In total 222 patients (136 men, 61%, 59 ± 11 years of age) with chest pain at intermediate risk of coronary artery disease (CAD) and no previous CAD underwent 64-slice CT.
