Abstract
Purpose of Review This review discusses the cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) myocardial tissue characterization techniques and its applications with a focus on pediatric patients. Delayed enhancement CMR (DE-CMR) is well established to detect focal myocardial fibrosis in the clinical setting but has its limitation in detecting diffuse myocardial disease. Newer mapping techniques allow exact assessment of myocardial relaxation times and their changes in various cardiac pathologies.
