✦ Synopsis

Late Gadolinium Enhancement (LGE) has been shown to be a poor prognostic indicator in LV failure. However, it has not been studied in predicting adverse prognosis in Pulmonary Hypertension (PH). Herein we show that LGE enhancement predicts major adverse clinical events (MACE) in PH patients.

## Background Our study aimed to investigate both the clinical implications of late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) by cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) and the relation of LGE to clinical findings in patients with Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TTC). ## Methods We evaluated 20 consecutive patients
