AB  - OBJECTIVES: To review clinical application of cardiac magnetic resonace (CMR) 
      imaging in a tertiary hospital. METHODS: A total of 344 medical records were 
      reviewed in relation to the use of CMR imaging over one year period in a tertiary 
      hospital in China. Data regarding indications for CMR imaging, cardiac structure 
      and function, late gadolinium enhancement (LGE), and diagnoses made from CMR 
      imaging were extracted and examined. RESULTS: Detection of heart failure and 
      cardiomyopathies was the most common reason for CMR imaging requests [164 (47.7%) 
      of requests], which was followed by diagnoses of coronary artery disease [79 
      (23.0%) of requests] and ventricular arrhythmia [65 (18.9%) of requests]. 
      Quantitative analyses were made in 319 (92.7%) cases, with 208 (65.2%) patients 
      being identified with ventricular dilatation and 46 (14.4%) patients being 
      identified with right ventricular dilatation. Apart from 74 (21.5%) cases for 
      which a confirmed diagnosis could not be obtained, CMR imaging assessment 
      corrected 21.2% (73 patients) and confirmed 57.3% (197 patients) of initial 
      referral diagnoses. CONCLUSIONS: CMR imaging is mainly used for structural and 
      functional assessments of hearts, which can help identify abnormalities that are 
      not detected by other imaging modalities. It can provide incremental diagnostic, 
      therapeutic, and prognostic information.
