Dallas criteria (DC) and European Society of Cardiology criteria (ESCC) have provided valuable frameworks for the histologic diagnosis and classification of myocarditis in endomyocardial biopsy (EMB) specimens. However, the adaptation and the usage of these criteria are variable and depend on local practice settings and regions/countries. Moreover, several ancillary tests that are not included in the current criteria, such as immunohistochemistry (IHC) or viral polymerase chain reaction (PCR), have proven useful for the diagnosis of myocarditis.

Abstract
Dallas criteria (DC) and European Society of Cardiology criteria (ESCC) have provided valuable frameworks for the histologic diagnosis and classification of myocarditis in endomyocardial biopsy (EMB) specimens. However, the adaptation and the usage of these criteria are variable and depend on local practice settings and regions/countries. Moreover, several ancillary tests that are not included in the current criteria, such as immunohistochemistry (IHC) or viral polymerase chain reaction (PCR), have proven useful for the diagnosis of myocarditis.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
