Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) use in the context of heart failure (HF) has increased over the last decade as it is able to provide detailed, quantitative information on function, morphology, and myocardial tissue composition. Furthermore, oxygenation-sensitive CMR (OS-CMR) has emerged as a CMR imaging method capable of monitoring changes of myocardial oxygenation without the use of exogenous contrast agents. RECENT FINDINGS: The contributions of OS-CMR to the investigation of patients with HF includes not only a fully quantitative assessment of cardiac morphology, function, and tissue characteristics, but also high-resolution information on both endothelium-dependent and endothelium-independent vascular function as assessed through changes of myocardial oxygenation. In patients with heart failure, OS-CMR can provide deep phenotyping on the status and important associated pathophysiology as a one-stop, needle-free diagnostic imaging test.
