Quantification of myocardial perfusion by cardiovascular magnetic resonance Jerosch-Herold MJ Cardiovasc Magn Reson 2010[Oct]; 12 (1): 57The potential of contrast-enhanced cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) for a quantitative assessment of myocardial perfusion has been explored for more than a decade now, with encouraging results from comparisons with accepted "gold standards", such as microspheres used in the physiology laboratory. This has generated an increasing interest in the requirements and methodological approaches for the non-invasive quantification of myocardial blood flow by CMR. This review provides a synopsis of the current status of the field, and introduces the reader to the technical aspects of perfusion quantification by CMR. The field has reached a stage, where quantification of myocardial perfusion is no longer a claim exclusive to nuclear imaging techniques. CMR may in fact offer important advantages like the absence of ionizing radiation, high spatial resolution, and an unmatched versatility to combine the interrogation of the perfusion status with a comprehensive tissue characterization. Further progress will depend on successful dissemination of the techniques for perfusion quantification among the CMR community.|*Coronary Circulation[MESH]|*Magnetic Resonance Imaging[MESH]|Artifacts[MESH]|Contrast Media[MESH]|Heart Diseases/*diagnosis/physiopathology[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Image Interpretation, Computer-Assisted[MESH]|Myocardial Perfusion Imaging/*methods[MESH]|Predictive Value of Tests[MESH] |
