Does the location of myocardial late gadolinium enhancement on cardiac MRI correlate with adverse remodeling and reduced function in competitive amateur cyclists?

Cardiac MRI assessment for late gadolinium enhancement (LGE)
Cyclists with right ventricular insertion point (RVIP) LGE vs non-RVIP LGE vs no LGE
Presence of focal non-ischemic myocardial LGE, cardiac remodeling, and cardiac functionsurrogate
Non-ischemic myocardial LGE is common in competitive amateur cyclists, but adverse remodeling is specifically associated with non-RVIP LGE, indicating a potentially pathological phenotype.
Nearly one-third of cyclists had focal non-ischemic myocardial LGE, predominantly at the RVIP. Adverse remodeling and reduced function were confined to cyclists with non-RVIP LGE, suggesting a distinct, pathological phenotype.
