dc.description.abstractPart 2 of the article. In this second instalment the author will focus on the use of tomographic imaging, namely cardiac computed tomography (CCT) and cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (CMR), in the structural and functional assessment of the cardiovascular system. Although Computed Tomography and Magnetic resonance have been in clinical use over the last 40 years, it is only through more recent advances in technology that imaging of a constantly moving structure like the heart has become possible with sufficient acquisition speed and spatial resolution. Now that this technology has become an important component of mainstream cardiology, it is imperative that all medical professionals understand the role and capabilities of CCT and CMR in order for patients to benefit from the exquisite diagnostic potential of this non-invasive technology.en_GB
