Cardiac MRI Study Affirms Link Between Air Pollution Exposure and Increased Diffuse Myocardial Fibrosis

For people with dilated cardiomyopathy and those with initially normal cardiac MRI, each 1 ug/m3 increase in one-year exposure to ambient fine particulate matter with 2.5-um > aerodynamic diameter was associated with significantly more diffuse myocardial fibrosis, according to a recent study.
