文摘Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging(CMRI) has emerged as a useful tertiary imaging tool in the investigation of patients suspected of many different types of cardiomyopathies,CMRI sequences are now of a sufficiently robust quality to enable high spatial and temporal resolution image acquisition.This has led to CMRI becoming an effective non-invasive imaging gold standard for many cardiomyopathies.In this 2-part review,we outline the typical sequences used to image cardiomyopathy,and present the imaging spectrum of cardiomyopathy.Part 1 focuses on the current classification of cardiomyopathy,basic CMRI sequences used in evaluating cardiomyopathy and the imaging spectrum of common phenotypes.
