  • Title: Physics and technology of cardiovascular MR imaging.
    Author: Axel L.
    Journal: Cardiol Clin; 1998 May; 16(2):125-33. PubMed ID: 9627753.
    Abstract:
    MR imaging has made rapid progress and promises to be of great utility in the evaluation of the cardiovascular system. Some of the features that make it so promising are its safety (with appropriate guidelines); its ability to produce high-quality tomographic images in arbitrary orientations; and the possibility to obtain unique data, such as on regional myocardial function and metabolism. Ongoing technical developments in such areas as more rapid imaging and newer contrast agents should continue to increase the usefulness of cardiovascular MR imaging.
