This volume focuses on major advances in inflammatory cardiomyopathy (DCMi) during the past 10 years. The book is divided up into the following sections: 1. Myocarditis and inflammatory cardiomyopathy clinical management epidemiology and prognosis; 2. Animal Models of myocarditis autoimmunity and viral infection; therapeutic interventions; 3. Alterations of the immune system in human viral and inflammatory cardiomyopathy; 4. Diagnosis of inflammatory and viral cardiomyopathy; 5. Treatment strategies in inflammatory cardiomyopathy patients. An international group of authors discusses topics as the histological Dallas criteria for clinical diagnostics emerging relevance of immunohistological detection of DCMi and detectability of viruses in EMBs and epidemiology and standard clinical treatment of acute myocarditis and dilated cardiomyopathy patients.
