Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) is a non-invasive imaging technology, which has been used widely in clinical and basic researches on cardiovascular disease in recent years. With the innovation and optimization of CMR technologies, significant progress has been developed in the evaluation of myocardial viability, the function of regions and global myocardium, and the myocardial texture characteristics. Therefore, with the discussion on the progress of CMR to draw more and more attention in clinics, we hope to improve the application of CMR not only in the basic research but also in the diagnosis and precise evaluation aspects of cardiovascular disease.
Keywords: Cardiac magnetic resonance; Diagnosis; Myocardial texture characteristics; Non-invasive imaging tecnology.
