Abstract
Cardiovascular magnetic resonance is widely used due to its possibilities for noninvasive cardiac tissue characterization. In recent years native myocardial T1- and T2-mapping techniques have been implemented in routine practice. These techniques provide quantitative analysis of myocardium and allow detection and evaluation of myocardial damage without the need for gadolinium-based contrast agents. In this review we would like to discuss application of native T1- and T2-mapping in different types of heart disease.
