Heart MRI could unlock secrets of rare cardiomyopathy

This study looks at a recently identified heart condition called non-dilated left ventricular cardiomyopathy (NDLVC), where the heart muscle is abnormal but not enlarged. Researchers will review medical records and heart MRI scans from 1,000 patients to find which scan features best predict serious events like death or need for a heart transplant. The goal is to create a better way to identify high-risk patients and guide their care.
