9️⃣ genetics!
💥 some genetic mutation are at higher risk than others and need closer follow-up

8️⃣ cardiovascular imaging reccomandation

7️⃣ For women with mechanical heart valves—anticoagulation regimens must be carefully managed, including switching between VKAs, LMWH, and UFH depending on the pregnancy stage and timing of delivery. ⏱"

5️⃣ Physiological changes during pregnancy are profound—stroke volume and cardiac output increase by 30–50%, and heart rate by 10–20 bpm. These changes can stress an already compromised heart.

4️⃣ Pregnancy in women with CVD must include shared decision-making, considering genetic background, obstetric history, comorbidities, lifestyle, and values—not just clinical risk. 🤰❤️"

3️⃣ Pregnancy with cardiovascular disease now involves a multidisciplinary Pregnancy Heart Team—specialized care before, during, and after pregnancy leads to fewer maternal deaths and better outcomes. 💪

ESC Guidelines on Cardio-Pregnancy (2025)

Here my highlights 👇

1⃣ personalized risk assessment for all women with cardiovascular disease considering pregnancy. Shared decision-making is at the heart of the approach🤝

1️⃣MMI in cardiac mass is the key
2️⃣Refers to common mass characteristics but..
3️⃣Always consider patient's anamnesis

👇 What is this cardiac mass?

Among the all talks at #scmr25 i was particularly touched by @ElsieRadiology talk:

1️⃣Find Joy+meaning of ur work
2️⃣Find your people
3️⃣Take initiative
4️⃣Establish a personalized work-life balance
5️⃣Be patient to yourself

Growth comes from experience:learn, evolve, and rise!

😱Cardiac mass are always a challenge!

Mind that:
- Bologna CMR mass score may help you ( ≥5 predicted a higher risk of all-cause death)
- a multimodality imaging approach is always the key in many situations!
-T1 mapping and T2 mapping may add some important information too
