About

    Cardiac imaging is a branch of medical imaging that focuses on capturing images of the heart and surrounding structures to diagnose and monitor various heart conditions. This area of research utilizes various imaging techniques such as echocardiography, cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and cardiac computed tomography (CT) to assess the structure and function of the heart, blood vessels, and valves. These imaging modalities play a crucial role in diagnosing conditions such as coronary artery disease, heart failure, and congenital heart defects, as well as guiding treatment decisions and monitoring disease progression. Advancements in cardiac imaging technology continue to improve the accuracy and efficiency of diagnosing and managing heart-related conditions, ultimately leading to better patient outcomes.
