What is Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)?

Cardiac MRI is a non‑invasive diagnostic imaging technique that uses magnetic fields and radio waves to create detailed images of the heart, its valves and blood vessels. It is a powerful diagnostic tool used to assess a wide range of cardiac conditions, including:

• Heart valve disease
• Cardiomyopathy
• Congenital heart disease
• Cardiac tumours
• Myocardial injury resulting from heart attacks

What is Cardiac Computed Tomography (CT)?

A cardiac CT scan is another diagnostic imaging technique that uses X‑rays to create cross‑sectional images of the heart. It is used to evaluate:

• Coronary artery obstruction
• Congenital cardiac abnormalities
