JCMR Journal Club is an expert online discussion with JCMR editors and authors - and you! JCMR editors pick recently published articles and discuss outcomes with the authors.

The forthcoming JCMR Journal Club is scheduled for 11th October 2023 at 11am Eastern Standard Time (US and Canada). Scott Flamm will be joined by authors Christoph Gräni and Benni Bernhard to discuss their article “Predictive Value of Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Right Ventricular Longitudinal Strain in Patients with Suspected Myocarditis”.

You can register for this event here.
