Keywords: Inflammation, Infiltration, Cardiomyopathy
Motivation: Development of a non-contrast differential method for cardiac inflammatory disease
Goal(s): Accurate identification of cardiac sarcoidosis and myocarditis
Approach: Cardiac cine imaging to project T2 values using T2prep-based T2 mapping with dynamic multiple trigger-delay framework
Results: Diastolic cine T2 values (54.2msec.) discriminated cardiac sarcoidosis from myocarditis with an AUC of 0.879, sensitivity of 86%, and specificity of 77%.
Impact: This method is a new technique that captures changes in myocardial properties during the cardiac cycle without the use of contrast media.
