Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging can provide noninvasive, high resolution
images of heart anatomy, viability, perfusion, and function. However, the adoption of clinical …

Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging has become an accurate and versatile
imaging modality to visualize the cardiovascular system in normal or abnormal conditions. In …

Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) on small animals is possible but remains
challenging and not well standardized. This publication aims to provide an overview of the …

MRI can accurately and reproducibly assess cardiac function in rodents but requires
