Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance [PDF]
Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) creates images from atomic nuclei with uneven spin using radiowaves in the presence of a magnetic field. Full details of the physical principles can be found elsewhere.1 For clinical purposes, MR is performed using hydrogen-1, which is abundant in water and fat. Radiofrequency waves excite the area of interest to

Cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging [PDF]
Spin-echo imaging is commonly used for assessment of cardiac and great vessel anatomy. With classic spin-echo imaging, rapidly moving blood appears dark. At current field strengths (1.5 and 3.0 tesla), cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging is considered safe for bioprosthetic and mechanical heart valves.

Background Heart failure related to cardiac siderosis remains a major cause of death in transfusion dependent anaemias. Replacement fibrosis has been reported as causative of heart failure in siderotic cardiomyopathy in historical reports, but these ...

Background Stimulated-echo (STEAM) and, more recently, motion-compensated spin-echo (M2-SE) techniques have been used for in-vivo diffusion tensor cardiovascular magnetic resonance (DT-CMR) assessment of cardiac microstructure.

Dobutamine Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance
Dobutamine stress cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) is a new diagnostic tool for the noninvasive detection of coronary artery disease. With technological advances, CMR has evolved to become an adequate alternative to standard cardiac stress tests such as ECG exercise stress testing, stress echocardiography, and perfusion scintigraphy.

Stress and rest T1-mapping may assess for myocardial ischemia and extracellular volume (ECV). However, the stress T1 response is method-dependent, and underestimation may lead to misdiagnosis.
