3D mapping of post-infarction scarring increases the prognostic potential of cardiac MRI

A multidisciplinary team of scientists based at the Universidad de Valladolid and the Centro Nacional de Investigaciones Cardiovasculares (CNIC) has developed a highly efficient method for identifying the 3-dimensional features of the scar tissue formed after a myocardial infarction. The study was carried out in partnership with scientists and clinicians at Hospital Clínico San Carlos, Hospital Universitario la Paz, Fundación Jiménez Díaz, Hospital Rúber Juan Bravo Quironsalud, the Universidad Politécnica de Madrid, the Centro de Supercomputación de Barcelona, Philips Healthcare Iberia, the CIBERCV, and the CIBERBBN.
