CMR characterization shows distinct myocardial tissue responses in Takotsubo syndrome (TTS). Emotional triggers are associated with greater myocardial edema, while secondary TTS more often shows LGE. #CardiacMRI reveals distinct TTS pathophysiology ahajrnls.org/44obUue

Read in @CircImaging! CMR-derived RV–pulmonary arterial coupling (forward RVSV/ESV) independently predicts death or HF hospitalization in patients with tricuspid regurgitation across the spectrum of TR severity, improving risk stratification #CardiacMRI ahajrnls.org/4wuuxbO

1/ Routine CT attenuation scans, acquired with cardiac PET or SPECT can be used to automatically measure aortic diameters with AI - an opportunity to extract an additional risk biomarker from the images we already have ...

2/ #PETMR doi.org/10.1161/CIRCIM…

1/ New in @CircImaging: Dual-tracer PET/MR provides in vivo evidence of an adrenal–cardiac axis in primary aldosteronism. Myocardial fibroblast activation was greatest in aldosterone-producing adenoma & declined after adrenalectomy, supporting early diagnosis & intervention ...

2/ Findings support continued use of LAV/BSA and the 34 mL/m² threshold. #Echocardiography @beardedheartDoc doi.org/10.1161/CIRCIM…

1/ New in @CircImaging: In >109,000 adults with overweight/obesity, indexing left atrial volume (LAV) to body surface area performed as well as alternative methods for predicting all-cause mortality. ...

2/ OPTALYSE-3D suggests distal venous vascular volume may provide insight into reperfusion and recovery beyond proximal clot burden and RV/LV ratio. doi.org/10.1161/CIRCIM…

1/ New in @CircImaging: Increased pulmonary venous volumes after ultrasound-assisted catheter-directed thrombolysis for acute PE. ...

2/ Highlights the power of advanced imaging in eosinophilic heart disease #CardioTwitter #CMR #Cardiology #Imaging #CaseReport @Felipe94Y @AnnalisaFiltz @Monteheart @CardioMDPhD @danilorenzatti @sanjanagraj @kirtipalbhatia @aschenonegiugni doi.org/10.1161/CIRCIM…

1/ Rare but important: a case of Loeffler’s endocarditis identified by cardiac MRI in a patient with hypereosinophilia (possible dupilumab link). CMR was key to distinguishing from other cardiomyopathies—guiding timely steroid and anticoagulation therapy & leading to recovery...

Beyond the presence of LGE. This multicenter CMR study shows that the granularity of fibrosis — including multifocality, septal location, and midwall pattern — carries important prognostic information in end-stage HCM @HudeloJ ahajrnls.org/4vWRTGR

2/ In this community-based cohort of 1,953 adults, the 2025 ASE recommendations: ▪️eliminated indeterminate categories ▪️identified more patients with LVDD ▪️maintained prognostic value for MACE doi.org/10.1161/CIRCIM…

1/ How do the new 2025 ASE diastolic function guidelines change real-world classification? ...

2/ A global multicenter study shows an echo-clinical AI model integrating TTE, clinical & lab data improved detection vs TTE-only AI—achieving AUC 0.94 with no indeterminate classifications doi.org/10.1161/CIRCIM…

1/ New in @CircImaging: Can multimodal AI improve cardiac amyloidosis detection? ...
