Cardiac Pseudotumor
Case 195: Looking for and Diagnosing Tuberculosis in the Lungs When CMR Findings are Classic for Sarcoid Cardiomyopathy
Every patient with suspected sarcoid cardiomyopathy must be thoroughly investigated to make sure it is not TB masquerading as sarcoid
Quantitative perfusion:Case
CMR quantitative perfusion
Semiquantitative perfusion analysis
Heart failure work up
Case 190: MVO and IMH Re-assessed
IMH has poorer prognosis than patients with MVO without IMH or without MVO
ICI Myocarditis
Cardiac Mass
Stress Cardiomyopathy
Case 186: Myocardial Fibroblast Activation Imaging
FAP uptake in the myocardium is always abnormal and should be reported and then worked up for ischemic or non-ischemic etiologies of fibrosis, if the patient is not a known case of cardiac disease.

Case 182: Double or Triple Trouble
It is important to know how to pick up subclinical rheumatic mitral valve disease and how to characterize further a bicuspid aortic valve.

Case 177: Fish-Mouth and Hockey-Stick
It is important to know the MRI findings of RHD and RHD MS, especially if you practice in India

NDLVC: Approach
Myocarditis
Eosonophilic myocarditis
This case describes myocardial and lung changes related to persistent high eosonophil counts. Clinical picture along with lab findings and imaging features confirm the diagnosis. Cardiac involvement is associated with high morbidity and mortality, hence it is important to diagnose these cases early and appropriate manage them.
Myocardial Calcification
Case 170: Heart of Stone
Calcification in different parts of the heart can help with diagnosis and prognostication
Infarcts
