The Double-Edged Sword of T1-Mapping in Systemic Sclerosis—A Comparison with Infectious Myocarditis Using Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance
Aims: T1-mapping is considered a surrogate marker of acute myocardial inflammation. However, in diffuse cutaneous systemic sclerosis (dcSSc) this might be confounded by coexisting myocardial fibrosis. We hypothesized that T1-based indices should not by themselves be considered as indicators of myoca...
