Clinical Trial Summary

Primary myocardial involvement is common in scleroderma, effected to pericardium, vascular, conducting defect and especially myocardium. Cardiac MRI is widely used for assessment of cardiac involvement in scleroderma, both structural and functional pathology. Cardiac MRI has a diagnostic accuracy of 85% for the detection of myocardial inflammation. Nowadays, the treatment of myocardial inflammation in scleroderma is uncertain. The investigator's study aims to define the cardiac outcome after moderate dose steroid therapy in the patients who have myocardial inflammation detection by cardiac MRI.
