Extracellular volume fraction mapping in the myocardium, part 1: evaluation of an automated method

BACKGROUND: Disturbances in the myocardial extracellular volume fraction (ECV), such as diffuse or focal myocardial fibrosis or edema, are hallmarks of heart disease. Diffuse ECV changes are difficult to assess or quantify with cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) using conventional late gadolini...
