心脏磁共振成像（MRI）的最新研究和发展表明，完全在磁共振扫描仪中进行的单一检查很可能取代目前对冠状动脉疾病的一系列检查。虽然磁共振扫描仪很昂贵，但将诊断测试合并到一个疗程的能力将大大降低成本，并增加患者的便利性。核磁共振成像还可以为医生提供心肌功能的诊断信息，这是标准测试无法提供的。在这篇文章中，我们集中在心脏MRI检查的一个方面，提供了以前无法获得的信息：心肌收缩的评估。
Recent research and development in cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has shown that a single exam, performed entirely in an MR scanner, might well replace the current sequence of tests for coronary disease. Though an MR scanner is expensive, the ability to consolidate diagnostic tests into a single session would significantly reduce costs and increase convenience for the patient. MRI might also provide the physician with diagnostic information on myocardial function that is not available from the standard battery of tests. In this article, we concentrate on one aspect of a cardiac MRI exam that provides previously unavailable information: assessment of myocardial contraction.
