Right ventricular longitudinal strain on CMR predicts ventricular arrhythmias and mortality in cardiac sarcoidosis

Background: Right ventricular (RV) dysfunction and late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) on cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) are associated with ventricular arrhythmias (VA) and mortality in cardiac sarcoidosis (CS). However, image resolution limits the detection of RV LGE. Global longitudinal R...
