Recent developments in cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging have led to a tremendous breakthrough in functional imaging and tissue characterisation of the left ventricular (LV) myocardium. Over the past few decades, numerous studies have shown significant improvement in CMR imaging of acute myocardial ischaemia and myocardial infarction (MI). Advances in hardware, acquisition sequences and…

Prevalence of Long-QT Syndrome Gene Variants in Sudden Infant Death Syndrome
Arnestad M, et al.
Circulation, 2007;115(3):361–7.
There are inadequate data regarding the true prevalence of mutations in arrhythmia-susceptibility genes among sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) cases. Given the importance and potential implications of these observations, the authors performed a study to more…

Pathophysiology of COVID-19-related Cardiac Injury
Acute myocarditis is a potentially life-threatening disease, which is most commonly caused by a viral infection. Among the viruses, the most cited are enteroviruses (especially coxsackievirus), adenovirus and parvovirus B19 and, rarely, coronavirus.
Recently, coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), which is caused by severe acute respiratory…

The field of heart transplantation has evolved tremendously since Alexis Carrel first explanted a canine heart and anastomosed it to the carotid artery and jugular vein of a recipient dog in 1905.1 In 1960, Norman Shumway and Richard Lower at Stanford described a technique for orthotopic canine heart transplantation and demonstrated adequate physiologic function of the denervated heart.2 Their…

Inherited cardiomyopathies are primary disorders of the heart muscle that have a genetic basis. On long-term follow-up they are associated with adverse outcomes, particularly sudden death, arrhythmia and heart failure.1 The diagnosis is made on the basis of clinical, cardiac imaging (primarily with transthoracic echocardiography) and genetic features,2 ideally by a tertiary inherited cardiac…
