More Details: We aimed to assess the diagnostic performance of Cardiac Magnetic Resonance (CMR) strain parameters in ACM patients to evaluate their diagnostic role. We systematically searched MEDLINE, EMBASE, Scopus, and Web of Science. Of the 146 records, 16 were included. All Right Ventricle (RV) global strains were significantly reduced in ACM patients compared to controls (Standardized Mean Difference (SMD)[95 % Confidence Interval (CI)]: Longitudinal 1.31[0.79,1.83]; Circumferential 0.88[0.34,1.42]; Radial −1.14[−1.78,−0.51]). Similarly, all Left Ventricle (LV) global strains were significantly impaired in ACM compared to healthy controls (SDM [95 %CI]: Longitudinal 0.88[0.48,12.28], Circumferential 0.97[0.72,1.22], Radial −1.24[−1.49,−1.00]). Regarding regional RV strains, longitudinal and circumferential strains were significantly reduced in basal and mid-wall regions, while they were comparable to controls in the apical regions. The RV radial strain was reduced only within the basal region in the ACM group compared to controls. ACM patients exhibited significant impairment of regional LV strains in all regions–basal, mid-wall, and apical–compared to control subjects. Ultimately, despite the limitations of CMR-FT in terms of reproducibility, it is superior to qualitative assessment in detecting wall motion abnormalities. Thus, integrating CMR-FT with ACM diagnostic criteria seems to enhance its diagnostic yield.
