Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (cardiac MRI, CMR), also known as cardiovascular MRI, is a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technology used for non-invasive assessment of the function and structure of the cardiovascular system. [2]
English: Real-time MRI of a human heart (short-axis view) at 1.5 mm spatial resolution and 33 ms temporal resolution. The T1-weighted images were acquired with an RF-spoiled radial FLASH sequence (TR/TE = 2.2/1.4 ms, flip angle 8°, 15 spokes) at 1.5 mm resolution, 8 mm section thickness, and 33 ms acquisition time without ECG or respiratory ...
English: Real-time MRI of a human heart (2-chamber view) at 2.0 mm spatial resolution and 22 ms temporal resolution. The T1-weighted images were acquired with an RF-spoiled radial FLASH CMR sequence (TR/TE = 2.0/1.3 ms, flip angle 8°, 11 spokes) at 2.0 mm resolution, 8 mm section thickness, and 22 ms acquisition time without ECG or respiratory ...
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a medical imaging technique used in radiology to generate pictures of the anatomy and the physiological processes inside the body. MRI scanners use strong magnetic fields , magnetic field gradients, and radio waves to form images of the organs in the body.
Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging perfusion (cardiac MRI perfusion, CMRI perfusion), also known as stress CMR perfusion, [1] is a clinical magnetic resonance imaging test performed on patients with known or suspected coronary artery disease to determine if there are perfusion defects in the myocardium of the left ventricle that are caused by narrowing of one or more of the coronary arteries.
Cardiac computerized tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). These techniques create images of the heart for inspection. Blood tests: Blood tests may be ordered to check the levels of substances in the blood that may show a heart problem. Blood tests can also help rule out other conditions. Histopathology of (a) normal myocardium ...
A physician may recommend cardiac imaging to support a diagnosis of a heart condition. Medical specialty professional organizations discourage the use of routine cardiac imaging during pre-operative assessment for patients about to undergo low or mid-risk non-cardiac surgery because the procedure carries risks and is unlikely to result in the change of a patient's management.

Demonstration of the HARP processing of a tagged cardiac MRI slice. (a) An MR image with vertical SPAMM tags. (b) shows the magnitude of its Fourier transform. By extracting the spectral peak inside the circle, a complex image is produced with a magnitude (c) and a phase (d). A tagged MRI showing motion of a human heart is shown in the image (a).
