Abstract:
Use of cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) to aid in diagnosis, management, and prognosis of ischemic and nonischemic cardiomyopathy has advanced tremendously in the past several decades. These advances have expanded our understanding of both ischemic and nonischemic cardiomyopathies while also allowing for new avenues of diagnosis and treatment. This review summarizes key concepts of CMR technology and CMR use in the diagnosis and prognosis in ischemic, infiltrative, inflammatory, and other nonischemic cardiomyopathies and discusses the use of CMR in the patient presenting with ventricular arrhythmia with unclear diagnosis and advances in CMR in the management cardiomyopathy.

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...
