Fabry disease (FD) is an X-linked disorder of lysosomal metabolism affecting multiple organs with cardiac disease being the leading cause of death. Current imaging evaluations of the heart are suboptimal. The goals of the current study are to evaluate the potential of quantitative T₁ mapping with cardiovascular MRI as a disease-specific imaging biomarker.
