心血管磁共振（CMR）因其独特的心室和大血管非侵入性成像功能而成为临床心脏病学实践中的关键成像方式。人们已经开发了多种 CMR 序列来评估心脏结构和功能的各个方面，并且在成像质量和采集时间方面也取得了重大进展。大量研究致力于开发全球和区域定量 CMR 指数，以帮助区分健康和病理。本综述的目的是讨论迄今为止提出的用于心腔临床评估的结构和功能 CMR 指数。我们包括指数定义、计算要求、心血管疾病中的示例应用以及相应的正常范围。此外，我们回顾了用于心脏边界自动分割的最新技术，这对于计算 CMR 指数是必要的。最后，我们详细讨论了现有文献以及未来需要解决的挑战，以便在临床实践中对心室进行更稳健和更全面的评估。
Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) has become a key imaging modality in clinical cardiology practice due to its unique capabilities for non-invasive imaging of the cardiac chambers and great vessels. A wide range of CMR sequences have been developed to assess various aspects of cardiac structure and function, and significant advances have also been made in terms of imaging quality and acquisition times. A lot of research has been dedicated to the development of global and regional quantitative CMR indices that help the distinction between health and pathology. The goal of this review paper is to discuss the structural and functional CMR indices that have been proposed thus far for clinical assessment of the cardiac chambers. We include indices definitions, the requirements for the calculations, exemplar applications in cardiovascular diseases, and the corresponding normal ranges. Furthermore, we review the most recent state-of-the art techniques for the automatic segmentation of the cardiac boundaries, which are necessary for the calculation of the CMR indices. Finally, we provide a detailed discussion of the existing literature and of the future challenges that need to be addressed to enable a more robust and comprehensive assessment of the cardiac chambers in clinical practice.
