Abstract
Imaging of the heart and great vessels has previously been done with plain film, cardiac catheterization, nuclear medicine, and echocardiography as the primary imaging modalities. The recent newer advances in the computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technologies, however, have dramatically changed our approach to imaging cardiac disease. CT and MRI, supplemented by CT angiography and MRI angiography, are increasingly replacing the chest film, as well as nuclear and—to some extent—echo imaging as the primary modalities in evaluating heart disease.
