Clinical myocardial involvement in systemic lupus erythematosus is rare. Lupus myocarditis is usually not detected until significant decrease in myocardial function becomes clinically evident. This case report describes MR imaging of lupus myocarditis that was used for diagnosis and follow up in a patient who declined cardiac biopsy. We also review the literature related to myocardial imaging by MRI.
系统性红斑狼疮累及临床心肌的情况较为罕见。狼疮性心肌炎通常在心肌功能显著下降出现临床症状之前难以被检测到。本病例报告描述了一名拒绝心脏活检的患者,通过磁共振成像(MR)对狼疮性心肌炎进行诊断及随访的情况。我们还回顾了与MRI心肌成像相关的文献。
