Fibromas are nonencapsulated tumors and extend into the surrounding myocardium. Central portions of the tumor are composed of hyalinized fibrous tissue, often with multiple calcification foci and ...

Cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) has emerged as a vital tool in the assessment of myocardial fibrosis, a condition characterized by the thickening and stiffening of heart tissue.

Myocardial fibrosis is a key process for heart failure development that may lead to severe phenotypes, including cardiac ...

(B) A section of myocardium showing muscle fibre hypertrophy, muscle fibre disarray, and interstitial fibrosis. (Stain: Movat pentachrome, original magnification x 20).

Cardiac MRI was also used by Kwon et al. to investigate the relationship between the presence of myocardial fibrosis (scarring) and small intramural coronary arteriole dysplasia (SICAD).
