Abnormal T1 findings in cardiac MRI were present in 32% of patients, indicating substantial prevalence of changes.
Combining T1 and T2 criteria raised specificity of cardiac MRI to 100%, a significant improvement for diagnosis.
In a cohort of 71 cardio-oncology patients, all subjects showed normal T2 findings, highlighting a distinct pattern.
Improved diagnostic specificity using both T1 and T2 may reduce misdiagnosis of acute myocarditis in this population.
