过去二十年来，心脏磁共振 (CMR) 成像技术的进步首次实现了薄心房壁的临床有用成像。在此期间，使用导管消融治疗心房颤动（AF）的情况也相应增加。这些发展导致了 CMR 在评估消融前和消融后心房结构和功能及其与心律失常基质的潜在联系方面的新适应症和越来越多的使用。本综述重点关注 CMR 在评估急性和慢性消融后心房组织特征中的作用及其在治疗房性心律失常中的潜在用途。
Technical advancements in cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging over the past two decades have allowed clinically useful imaging of the thin atrial wall for the first time. During this period, there has been a parallel increase in the use of catheter ablation to treat atrial fibrillation (AF). These developments have led to new indications for and increasing use of CMR in the assessment of pre- and post-ablation atrial structure and function and their potential link to arrhythmia substrate. This review focuses on the role of CMR in the assessment of acute and chronic post-ablation atrial tissue characterisation and its potential use in the treatment of atrial arrhythmias.
