- Abstract
Cardiovascular magnetic resonance has emerged as a very helpful tool for the interventional cardiologists not only in the assessment and treatment of coronary artery disease, but also in the evaluation of various structural cardiac diseases. The main pulse sequences are standardised, acquired during short breath-holds, and include steady-state free precession cines, dynamic myocardial first-pass perfusion imaging during contrast injection, and late enhancement imaging for the identification of myocardial substrates. Less than 30-minute CMR studies are now available for the most common clinical indications. More recently, T1 and T2 parametric myocardial maps are promising for detailed myocardial tissue characterisation (edema, replacement fibrosis, diffuse interstitial fibrosis). Technical aspects will not be addressed with particular emphasis on clinical applications. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
