Role of cardiovascular magnetic resonance in acute and chronic ischemic heart disease.
Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) is a multi-parametric, multi-planar, non-invasive imaging technique, which allows accurate determination of biventricular function and precise myocardial tissue characterization in a one-stop-shop technique, free from the use of ionizing radiations. Though CMR has been increasingly applied over the last two decades in every-day clinical practice, its widest application has been in the assessment of ischemic cardiomyopathy.
