Description

Zi-qi Zhou and six co-authors built scan based models for heart scarring in a muscle disease in a 2023 study. The disease, Duchenne muscular dystrophy, scars the heart over time. The standard scan to spot the scar uses a dye that some patients cannot safely take, so the team sought models that work from dye free scans alone.

They enrolled one hundred thirty six patients and split them into build and check groups. Seven models grew from three dye free measures, alone and in blends. The full blend read best in the build group, though most models ran close. In the check group the strain measure led, with fair hit rates. The authors say dye free reads can stand in for the dye scan in a set of cases.
