cardiac magnetic resonance imaging

cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR), three-dimensional diagnostic imaging technique used to visualize the heart and its blood vessels without the need for X-rays or other forms of radiation. Cardiac MRI employs a steady magnetic field, a radio-frequency transmission system, and computer technology to generate detailed pictures and brief videos of the beating heart. The images produced provide valuable information about heart structure and function. Cardiac MRI is used to diagnose a variety of heart conditions,...
