Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) is established as a key imaging modality in a wide range of cardiovascular diseases and has an emerging diagnostic and prognostic role in selected patients presenting acutely. Recent technical advancements have improved the versatility of this imaging technique, which has become quicker and more detailed in both functional and tissue characterization assessments. Information derived from this test has the potential to change clinical management, guide therapeutic decisions, and provide risk stratification. This review aims to highlight the evolving diagnostic and prognostic role of CMR in this setting, whilst also providing practical guidance on which patients can benefit the most from CMR and which information can be derived from this test that will impact clinical management.

Abstract

Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) is established as a key imaging modality in a wide range of cardiovascular diseases and has an emerging diagnostic and prognostic role in selected patients presenting acutely. Recent technical advancements have improved the versatility of this imaging technique, which has become quicker and more detailed in both functional and tissue characterization assessments. Information derived from this test has the potential to change clinical management, guide therapeutic decisions, and provide risk stratification. This review aims to highlight the evolving diagnostic and prognostic role of CMR in this setting, whilst also providing practical guidance on which patients can benefit the most from CMR and which information can be derived from this test that will impact clinical management.
