Abstracts from the meeting:
- Cardiovascular magnetic resonance for the assessment of cardiac inflammation following prolonged exercise
- Late gadolinium enhancement as an independent predictor of atrial fibrillation in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
- Complications of aortic coarctation repair assessed using cardiovascular magnetic resonance
- CMR tagging for measurements of the long axis function of the systemic right ventricular free wall
- Acute invasive measures of microvascular function predicts early and longterm infarct size and left ventricular function revealed by magnetic resonance imaging in patients with ST segment elevation myocardial infarction
- The cardiac magnetic resonance myocardial perfusion reserve index in assessment of internal mammary bypass grafts
- Can the outcome of post partum cardiomyopathy be predicted using late gadolinium enhancement CMR?
- The combination of low dose dobutamine and delayed enhancement CMR is more predictive of infarct zone and left ventricular functional recovery than either element alone
- Low dose dobutamine adds incremental value to delayed enhancement cardiac MR in the prediction of adverse remodelling following acute myocardial infarction
