Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging is a robust noninvasive technique with widening diagnostic and prognostic applications for investigating cardiovascular disorders.
What are the current diagnostic and prognostic applications of cardiac magnetic resonance imaging for cardiovascular disorders?
This review outlines the current clinical applications of cardiac magnetic resonance imaging to improve the management of cardiovascular disorders.
Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging is a robust noninvasive technique for investigating cardiovascular disorders. The evolution of cardiac magnetic resonance and its widening span of diagnostic and prognostic applications have generated excitement as well as uncertainty regarding its potential clinical use and its role vis-à-vis conventional imaging techniques. The purpose of this evidence-based review is to discuss some of these issues by highlighting the current (Part 1) and emerging (Part 2) applications of cardiac magnetic resonance. Familiarity with the versatility and usefulness of cardiac magnetic resonance will facilitate its wider clinical acceptance for improving the management of cardiovascular disorders.
Goenka et al. (Sat,) conducted a review in Cardiovascular disorders. Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging vs. Conventional imaging techniques was evaluated.
