Supports CMR for etiological diagnosis and treatment monitoring in dilated cardiomyopathy; leaves open optimal protocols amid ongoing technological limits.
Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) plays an important role in the evaluation of dilated cardiomyopathy, and is the gold-standard technique in identifying the various etiological factors and differentiating one from the other. It not only helps in identifying the cause but also aids in monitoring the treatment response. The present article reviews the different MRI techniques available, recent advancements, and limitations in technology in the evaluation of patients with dilated cardiomyopathy in the present-day scenario.
