Cardiac Magnetic Resonance (CMR) allows evaluation of the functional and flow changes in pericardial constriction as well as detection of acute pericardial inflammation, fusion and thickening of pericardial layers and pericardial effusion. We sought to evaluate the diagnostic role of tissue characterization by CMR in constrictive pericarditis (CP). We performed a CMR exam in 70 patients (mean age 58 ± 16) with clinical suspicion of constrictive pericarditis and constrictive pattern at echocardiography and/or catheterization. A multiparametric CMR approach was used to evaluate the initial diagnostic suspicion. A clinical follow-up was performed in all patients for a median of 551 days. The diagnosis of CP was confirmed in 53 patients while 1...
