This study aimed to identify diffuse myocardial tissue changes in pediatric myocarditis patients by applying T1 and T2 mapping techniques. The correlations between T1 and T2 values and cardiac function were assessed. Abnormal post-contrast T1 values and extracellular volume (ECV) of “normal appearing” myocardium in pediatric myocarditis patients were found and were correlated with left ventricular cardiac function and stroke volume (SV) in children with chronic myocarditis.
