Comparison of routine contrast‑enhanced computed tomography with late gadolinium enhancement cardiac magnetic resonance imaging in the detection of myocardial pathology.

Unlabelled: Bacground: Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) represents the gold standard in noninvasive evaluation of myocardial tissue. However, some patients are unable to undergo cardiac MRI due to a variety of reasons.

Aims: We sought to determine the diagnostic accuracy of routinely performed contrast‑enhanced computed tomography (CECT) compared with cardiac MRI in the evaluation of myocardial tissue.
