Acute Viral Myocarditis: The Role of Speckle Tracking Echocardiography by Mamotabo R Matshela in Advancements in Cardiovascular Research (ACR) in Lupine Publishers
Although, an accurate initial diagnosis of acute myocarditis can be
challenging to make, all patients with suspected acute
myocarditis need a thorough diagnostic work-up and undergo a full
imaging evaluation from the very outset to rule out other
condition with a similar clinical picture. An acute myocarditis and
acute myocardial infarction may musgarate each other, as a result
a thorough evaluation is warranted to be certain of the diagnosis, and
these patients should be managed in a high cardiac care
setting. The diagnosis of an acute myocarditis is based on symptoms,
elevated markers of myocardial necrosis, electrocardiographic
and imaging modalities including echocardiographic changes. A broad
range of diagnostic tools are warranted during the initial
diagnostic work-up, however a full echocardiographic evaluation should
form an integral imaging modality to rule out other cardiac
and systemic disorders, to properly evaluate ventricular function and
presence of pericardial collections; and to further guide
management.
