Kwong Published online: 26 April 2017 Springer Science+Business Media New York 2017 Abstract qualitative assessment of myocardial replacement fibrosis, it Purpose of Review The purpose of this review is to explore is limited in regards to absolute quantification of myocardial the role of cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) in the fibrosis, and also, the assessment of diffuse fibrosis by CMR evaluation of myocardial disorders that can present with sig- can be technically challenging. As a result, in recent years, T1 nificant cardiac arrhythmias. In addition, we explore recent and T2 mapping techniques have been welcomed by the CMR developments in the field of CMR in the evaluation of such community, as potential methods of quantitating myocardial conditions, such as T1 and T2 mapping techniques.

Areas of diffuse myocardial fibrosis have portance of CMR as a diagnostic tool in the evaluation of such greater T1 values (by about 10–20%) than normal tissue, be- conditions lies in the fact that in routine clinical practice these fore intravenous Gd is given.
