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.

In vivo contrast free chronic myocardial infarction characterization using diffusion-weighted cardiovascular magnetic resonance. [PDF]
BackgroundDespite the established role of late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) in characterizing chronic myocardial infarction (MI), a significant portion of chronic MI patients are contraindicative for the use of ...
