MRI is a non-invasive and non-ionizing imaging modality that is
perfectly suited for the diagnosis and follow-up of both pediatric
and adult congenital heart disease. It provides a large field of
view and has the unique ability to depict complex cardiac and
vascular anatomy and to measure cardiac function and flow within
one examination. MRI is the ideal complement to echocardiography
whenever the information provided by the latter is limited. This
book has been conceived as a self-teaching manual that will assist
qualified radiologists, cardiologists, and pediatricians, as well
as those in training. It is richly illustrated with numerous images
and drawings that cover all usual and most unusual anomalies. The
principal author, Professor Bruno Kastler, is head of radiology at
Besançon University Hospital, France and is board certified in both
radiology and cardiology.
