Tumors
Case 117: The Tip of the Iceberg - II
Sometimes, the heart is just one of the organs involved and a cardiac MRI or CT can start a cascade leading to the final diagnosis.
Dilated cardiomyopathy
Case 114: "Ring-Like" Enhancement
"Ring-like" enhancement lowers the threshold for genetic testing in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy.
Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy
Case 109: Apical Aneurysm, Mid-Cavity Obstruction and Papillary Muscle Attachments
It is important to understand and diagnose apical aneurysms, infarcts, mid-cavity obstruction and associated changes
Tumors
Case 104: The RV Mass Conundrum
RA and RV tumors have a typical differential diagnosis and have to be aggressively evaluated for etiology
Noncompaction
Case 100: What’s in a Name? Excessive Trabeculation? Noncompaction? Does it Matter?
Noncompaction vs excessive trabeculation, significant or not?
Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy
Case 96: The Ace of Spades
Apical HCM is a distinct entity that needs further understanding
Myocarditis
Case 92: When 2/2 Gives Us The Confidence to Make the Diagnosis
In the acute and subacute setting, using the updated Lake Louis criteria allows us to make or rule out a diagnosis of myocarditis with confidence.
Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy
Case 88: Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy – 18 Years CMR Follow-Up
It is rare to find such a long follow-up with cardiac MRI
Stress Perfusion CMR
Case 83: The Predictive and Prognostic Power of Adenosine Stress Perfusion CMR
Adenosine stress perfusion CMR is a powerful tool to predict present and future events
Cardiomyopathy
Case 79: Sometimes Parasitic, Sometimes Not, But So Misunderstood
A subendocardial membrane is a distinctive sign of this condition
Cardiomyopathy
Case 75: To Padua and Back
The new 2020 Padua criteria explained
Thalassemia
Short Lecture: MRI in Thalassemia
MRI is a useful tool to estimate Fe in the heart, pancreas, liver and pituitary

A large heart in a young mother
Pericardium
The Heart Trapped in a Vise
