| Popis: | Over the last several years, the role of cardiac magnetic resonance imaging in the diagnosis and management of heart failure has been rapidly expanding. The techniques unrivaled flexibility, accuracy in defining ventricular structure and function, and capacity to characterize tissue makes it particularly well suited for the study of the nonischemic cardiomyopathies. In this article, we provide an overview of the existing literature highlighting the diagnostic utility and prognostic power of cardiac magnetic resonance imaging in the nonischemic cardiomyopathies. |
