The aim is to establish standardized protocols for cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging to improve consistency and safety in cardiac assessments.
Development of protocols for assessing left and right ventricular structure and function
Inclusion of gadolinium dosing and perfusion techniques
Creation of disease-specific protocols covering ischemic heart disease, cardiomyopathy, and angiography techniques.
Standardized CMR protocols were outlined for various cardiac conditions including ischemic heart disease and cardiomyopathies.
Emphasis was placed on safety measures when using stress testing (dobutamine and adenosine) during imaging.
Guidelines for the application of late gadolinium enhancement in assessing cardiac viability were established.
