Core Tip

Core tip: Cardiac magnetic resonance has excellent spatial resolution to assess ventricular volumes and function. It is also continuing to evolve to provide key diagnostic and prognostic information particularly through the use of gadolinium contrast agent for the conditions presented in this review.
