Structured PICO

Does magnetic resonance imaging provide effective noninvasive evaluation and diagnosis of myocardial and pericardial diseases?

Population

Patients with myocardial and pericardial diseases, including dilated and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, myocarditis, amyloidosis, sarcoidosis, heart transplantation, and pericardial effusions/inflammation

Intervention

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), including fast imaging techniques and contrast-enhanced MRI

MRI is a highly versatile and sensitive noninvasive imaging modality for the comprehensive evaluation of various myocardial and pericardial diseases.
