Multimodal mAgnetic Resonance imaGIng in Cardiovascular Disease

Summary

This single-center, prospective, observational cohort study aims to evaluate the clinical application value of multi-modal cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging in patients with cardiovascular diseases (CVD). While traditional imaging methods have limitations in fully evaluating myocardial tissue characteristics, multi-modal CMR offers a comprehensive, non-invasive "one-stop" assessment. It can simultaneously evaluate heart structure, function, tissue features (such as fibrosis and edema), and hemodynamics. The study plans to enroll patients with suspected or confirmed CVD. Participants will undergo a comprehensive multi-modal CMR scan (including Cine, T1/T2 mapping, Late Gadolinium Enhancement, and 4D flow sequences) as part of their evaluation. By tracking clinical outcomes, the study seeks to establish a standardized imaging assessment system to improve the early detection, accurate diagnosis, risk stratification, and prognostic prediction for various types of cardiovascular diseases.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

* Aged 18 years and older, with no gender restrictions.

Clinically suspected or confirmed cardiovascular disease (including but not limited to ischemic heart disease, non-ischemic cardiomyopathy, myocarditis, valvular disease, etc.), requiring a cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) examination to determine the etiology or evaluate myocardial tissue characteristics.

No contraindications to magnetic resonance examination, and able to cooperate with breath-holding instructions.

Voluntarily participate in this study and sign a written informed consent form.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Absolute contraindications: Implantation of non-MRI compatible metallic foreign bodies (e.g., old pacemakers, implantable cardioverter-defibrillators \[ICD\], aneurysm clips, etc.).

Relative contraindications: Severe claustrophobia, unable to complete the examination despite communication.

Severe renal insufficiency.

Special populations: Pregnant or lactating women.

Presence of severe arrhythmias (e.g., persistent atrial fibrillation) leading to severely impaired magnetic resonance signal acquisition, rendering the image quality inadequate for diagnosis.

Poor expected compliance: Unable to complete follow-up, or deemed unsuitable for enrollment by the investigator for other reasons.
