Takayasu arteritis: role of cardiovascular magnetic imaging

Abstract:
Takayasu arteritis (TA) is a primary arteritis of unknown cause that commonly affects the aorta and its main branches. Traditionally, X-ray contrast angiography has been the gold standard for diagnosis and review of this chronic disease but recent developments suggest that non-invasive imaging with multiplanar cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) and magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) have a number of advantages for use in routine care. This review utilises a series of cases referred for imaging at the Royal Brompton Hospital, London to illustrate these points of development.

Definition and Purpose
An X-ray, or radiograph, is a non-invasive method that uses ionizing radiation to take images of internal structures. It is mainly used in cardiac imaging to examine the heart, lungs, and major blood vessels, aiming to identify abnormalities in the heart's size, shape, and position, such as heart failure, congenital defects, and vascular...
