AB  - The utility and role of cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) as a non-invasive 
      diagnostic imaging modality has been well recognized in the field of 
      cardiovascular disease. Use of late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) has further 
      enhanced CMR's ability to determine structural, functional, and prognostic 
      information in various cardiovascular diseases. The delivery and distribution of 
      gadolinium as an extracellular agent allows the detection of edema, fibrosis, and 
      infiltration in the myocardium. The pattern of LGE in cardiomyopathies enables us 
      to distinguish among various disease processes non-invasively. Additionally, in 
      patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and sudden cardiac death, it helps in 
      decision making in regards to use of implantable cardioverter defibrillator. In 
      the evaluation of cardiac masses, LGE-CMR can often times differentiate between 
      neoplastic and non-neoplastic conditions. In this review, we will discuss the 
      various aspects of gadolinium-based contrast agents, and its application in CMR.
