Abstract/OtherAbstract:
We present our experience from the first 1000 clinical cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging cases performed at our institution. The case load included pediatric and adult patients with a male predominance (two thirds of the patient population). The spectrum of diseases was very broad, and included myopathic, atherosclerotic, vascular, valvular, pericardial, neoplasmatic and congenital heart disease. Our experience demonstrates the areas where cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging has established value and suggests areas of future development.
