Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) is an imaging modality with growing indications in cardiology. The purpose of this article is to illustrate the current clinical applications of CMR across the spectrum of ischemic heart disease, non-ischemic cardiomyopathies, cardiac arrhythmias and valvular or vascular heart disease. The strengths of CMR lie in its ability to comprehensively image, without the need for ionizing radiation, cardiac and vascular anatomy, function, perfusion, viability and physiology, providing a powerful non-invasive tool for patient diagnosis and prognostication.
