Synopsis

Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) evaluated cardiac involvement in patients recovered from COVID- 19 . Myocardial injury caused by COVID-19 was previously reported in hospitalized patients. It is unknown if there is sustained cardiac involvement after patients’ recovery from COVID-19. Cardiac involvement was found in a proportion of patients recovered from COVID-19. CMR manifestation included myocardial edema, fibrosis, and impaired ventricle function.CMR myocardial tissue and strain imaging parameters suggest that a proportion of participants recovered from COVID-19 had subclinical myocardial abnormalities detectable months after recovery. These CMR findings indicate the need for ongoing investigation of the long-term cardiovascular consequences of COVID-19.
