Abstract

Cardiac Magnetic Resonance imaging has been shown to be an invaluable
Tool in detection of myocarditis , Not only it allows the detdction of
The presene and exten t of myocardial damage but also enables
Differentiation from other clinical entities (e.g., ischemia – related ),
Identifies concomitant pericardial involvement and quantifies the impact
On regional and global function .
Moreover, it has been demonstrated as a reliable noninvasive method that
Can detect change after the onset of symptoms and be repeated
Several times Without application of radiation or radioactive material
Invasive Procedures .
This remarkably , can be done With an overall in diagnostic
Sensitivity and Specificity .
Key Words : Magnetic resonance imaging , myocarditis , ischemic ,
Pericardial , radioactive .
