      Failure Patients: Cardiac Magnetic Resonance.

AB  - Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) has evolved into a major tool for the diagnosis 
      and assessment of prognosis of patients suffering from heart failure. Anatomical 
      and structural imaging, functional assessment, T1 and T2 mapping tissue 
      characterization, and late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) have provided clinicians 
      with tools to distinguish between non-ischemic and ischemic cardiomyopathies and 
      to identify the etiology of non-ischemic cardiomyopathies. LGE is a useful tool 
      to predict the likelihood of functional recovery after revascularization in 
      patients with CAD and to guide the left ventricular (LV) lead placement in those 
      who qualify for cardiac resynchronization (CRT) therapy. In addition, the 
      presence of LGE and its extent in myocardial tissue relate to overall 
      cardiovascular outcomes. Emerging roles for cardiac imaging in heart failure with 
      preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) are being studied, and CMR continues to be 
      among the most promising noninvasive imaging alternatives in the diagnosis of 
      this disease.
