Abstract

MRI and CT have become important tools in the diagnosis of cardiac diseases. The permanent technical development and the continuously growing clinical and scientific experience required an update of the previous recommendations regarding the spectrum of clinical applications and the technical aspects of MRI and CT of the heart. The Working group Herzdiagnostik of the German Roentgen Society has revised its recommendations based on the current literature and has updated technical requirements and clinical indications. Part I of the recommendations deals with cardiac computed tomography while part II focuses on MRI in cardiac applications. These recommendations shall serve as a guideline when deciding on appropriate technique for non-invasive cardiac imaging and shall help to perform high quality imaging based on a standardised approach.
