Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging is one of the most important imaging techniques for the diagnosis of cardiovascular disorders. It is based on the use of a strong magnetic field and radio waves for the composition of images of the heart and chest, whereas processing of the captured images is performed with the use of a special software installed in a computer. Most of the time, during the examination, a contrast agent is administered (gadolinium) in order to take more information by the imaged.
Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging is a specialized imaging examination of the cardiovascular system, which gives us high-quality and high-resolution images, so as to be able to study more thoroughly the cardiovascular disorders. It does not expose the patient to radiation and additionally the drug that is used as contrast agent has the fewest side effects of all the other contrast agents that are used in other imaging methods.
Advantages:
- Modern cardiac imaging technique
- Reliable
- Safe / without radiation
- Painless / bloodless
- No special preparation is needed
- It is applied to all patients with cardiovascular disorders *
* except the patients with non-compatible pacemakers – defibrillators, allergy to the contrast agent, end-stage renal insufficiency
