Nicht invasive kardiologische Bildgebung bei Herzinsuffizienz

Abstract

Heart failure is the fastest growing cardiac diagnosis in Europe with an incidence of 10 cases per 1000 people in individuals older than 65. The vital role of cardiac imaging in the management of patients with heart failure continues to grow. As many novel imaging markers emerge, it becomes difficult for clinicians to choose the imaging tests that can best aid clinical decisions for a given patient. Echocardiography remains a first-line test in heart failure and continues to provide valuable information on left ventricular and valvular function. Single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) is routinely used to detect ischemia. However, there is increasing evidence to support the use of other imaging modalities, cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR), positron emission tomography (PET) and computed tomography (CT), to assist heart failure physicians with clinical decision making. In this review, we summarize the most recent developments relevant to heart failure.
