Cardiac imaging is a critical and rapidly evolving field in modern medicine, playing a fundamental role in the diagnosis, risk stratification, treatment planning, and follow-up of patients with cardiovascular disease. As cardiovascular disorders remain the leading cause of death globally, the demand for accurate, noninvasive, and detailed evaluation of the heart has grown dramatically. Advances in imaging technology have revolutionized our ability to visualize cardiac anatomy, assess cardiac function, identify perfusion deficits, and even evaluate myocardial tissue characteristics at a molecular level.The history of cardiac imaging dates back to the early 20th century, with the use of chest radiography to assess cardiac silhouette.This book has 6 chapters, including: Introduction to Cardiac Imaging;Chapter 1, Routine cardiac MRI, systemic approach to interpretation;Chapter 2, Anatomy of the heart at multidetector CT;Chapter 3, Mnatomic basis of echocardiographic diagnosis;Chapter 4, Interpretation of SPECT/CT myocardial perfusion images;Chapter 5, Coronary artery calcium scoring;Chapter 6, Coronary anatomy and anomalies.
