#whyCMR LGE at +3SD threshold, none at +5 SD threshold @circlecvi @drkartikganga @avinash230791 @Ahmed43101178 ,✅ raised T1 and T2 mapping values
Role of #whyCMR in Takotsubo CM (TC): ✅reversible ✅transient LV dysfunction ✅most commonly basal hyperkinesis and mid-apical
LV ballooning and hypokinesia (a) ✅other phenotypes may be present (b-d) ✅ diffuse edema/raised T2

#whyCMR in TC:✅absence of LGE (at +5SD threshold) , but recent studies suggest LGE may be present ✅T1 and ECV mapping detect diffuse ECM abnormalities- here ECV normal at basal LV, increased at apical LV✅strain can help detect myocardial deformation abnormalities
