Clinical Trial Summary

Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) is accurate to identify acute myocardial damage (edema, hyperemia, and/or fibrosis) due to acute myocarditis (AM). Recently, two-dimensional strain echocardiography was also validated in order to provide important information on myocardial dysfunction in patients with AM, even if no wall motion abnormalities are detected. No data are available about incidence of longitudinal myocardial dysfunction and its prognostic role in AM.


Clinical Trial Description

In this study, the investigators will analyze the effect of acute myocarditis-induced damage on LV myocardial deformation and remodeling both in the acute myocarditis phase and follow-up period (about 2 years later). The investigators will use a combined approach including strain echocardiography to asses left ventricular myocardial deformation and late gadolinium enhancement (LGE)cardiac magnetic resonance for the assessment of left ventricular damage. ;
