French Registry of CMR Late Gadolinium Enhancement in Myocarditis (MYOCARDITI-LGE)

January 30, 2026 updated by: Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris

Retrospective French Registry of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance Late Gadolinium Enhancement in Patients With Myocarditis

Acute myocarditis is a major cause of death in young adults and carries substantial morbidity, including a significant risk of progression to dilated cardiomyopathy. Current diagnostic and therapeutic strategies remain poorly defined, making risk stratification crucial to enable personalized treatments and reduce mortality and major cardiovascular events.
