Transcytolemal water exchange and its effect on myocardial T1 relaxation can, if neglected, lead to a significant underestimate of the myocardial extracellular volume fraction, a novel marker of diffuse fibrosis.
## Abstract MicroRNAs play an important role in myocardial diseases. MiR‐133a regulates cardiac hypertrophy, while miR‐29b is involved in cardiac fibrosis. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether miR‐133a and miR‐29b play a role in myocardial fibrosis caused by Angiotensin II (Ang II)‐depende
