在 ESC 心肌和心包疾病工作组的立场声明中，专家共识小组回顾了当前有关心肌炎临床表现、诊断和治疗的知识，并对临床疑似心肌炎及其经活检证实的独特发病机制提出了新的诊断标准。其目的是弥合临床和基于组织的诊断之间的差距，改善管理，并为炎症性心肌疾病的病因驱动治疗的未来登记和多中心随机对照试验提供共同参考点。
In this position statement of the ESC Working Group on Myocardial and Pericardial Diseases an expert consensus group reviews the current knowledge on clinical presentation, diagnosis and treatment of myocarditis, and proposes new diagnostic criteria for clinically suspected myocarditis and its distinct biopsy-proven pathogenetic forms. The aims are to bridge the gap between clinical and tissue-based diagnosis, to improve management and provide a common reference point for future registries and multicentre randomised controlled trials of aetiology-driven treatment in inflammatory heart muscle disease.
