Description

The medical imaging technology used for the non-invasive assessment of the function and structure of the cardiovascular system is termed as cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging. It corresponds to other imaging techniques such as cardiac CT, echocardiography and nuclear medicine. It plays an important role in evidence-based diagnostic and therapeutic pathways in cardiovascular diseases. It helps in the assessment of cardiomyopathies, vascular diseases, myocarditis, congenital heart disease, and myocardial ischemia and other cardiac diseases. It also plays a crucial role in surgical planning in complex congenital heart disease. Cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging utilizes the basic principles of image reconstruction and acquisition like other MRI techniques. The various advancements in cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging are glanced at and their applications as well as ramifications are looked at in detail in this book. It elucidates new techniques and their applications in a multidisciplinary manner. This book will serve as a reference to a broad spectrum of readers.
