DOI: 10.1093/eurheartj/ehz746.0250
Abstract: While constrictive pericarditis has been traditionally considered a disabling disease, reversible constrictive pericarditis has been described in previous studies. But there are limited studies on cardiac imaging of tuberculous pericarditis. In particular, no studies on… read more here.
