Article Abstract
Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) is established as a key imaging modality in a wide range of cardiovascular diseases and has an emerging diagnostic and prognostic role in selected patients presenting acutely. Recent technical advancements have improved the versatility of this imaging technique, which has become quicker and more detailed in both functional and tissue characterization assessments. Information derived from this test has the potential to change clinical management, guide therapeutic decisions, and provide risk stratification. This review aims to highlight the evolving diagnostic and prognostic role of CMR in this setting, whilst also providing practical guidance on which patients can benefit the most from CMR and which information can be derived from this test that will impact clinical management.

Background And Objective: To develop an end-to-end artificial intelligence solution-video-based Multi-Point Tracking Network (MPTN), for detecting and tracking atrioventricular junction (AVJ) points from cardiovascular magnetic resonance and deriving AVJ motion parameters.
Methods: The MPTN model consists of two modules: AVJ point detection and AVJ motion tracking. The detection module utilizes convolutional-based feature extraction and elastic regression to detect all candidate AVJ points.

The purpose of this study was to compare brain metabolite concentrations between healthy and CHD neonates before and after cardiac surgery. Healthy term newborns and neonates with CHD were recruited prospectively. T-weighted brain images and MRS data were acquired in the cerebellum, right frontal lobe and basal ganglia.

Background: Serial perfusion cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) in symptomatic patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) may provide mechanistic insight into dynamic abnormalities of the myocardium.
Objectives: To assess how changes in cardiac reperfusion and remodelling associate with symptom improvement in patients undergoing CABG METHODS: Patients awaiting elective CABG completed serial quality of life questionnaires and detailed CMR at baseline and at 6-12 months post CABG as per protocol. Automated fully quantitative stress and rest myocardial blood flow was calculated, alongside assessment of the visual ischaemic burden.

Post-transplant rejection surveillance remains a cornerstone of heart transplant care. Although endomyocardial biopsy (EMB) has long been the gold standard for detecting rejection, its invasive nature, interobserver variability in histologic interpretation, and limitations in distinguishing between acute cellular rejection (ACR) and antibody-mediated rejection have prompted interest in noninvasive techniques. Traditional biomarkers- such as troponin, C-reactive protein, brain natriuretic peptide, and donor-specific antibodies- offer supplementary assessments of graft function but lack the specificity and sensitivity required to be standalone markers.

Purpose: (a) To design a methodology for drawing random samples of any Ensemble Average Propagator (EAP) (b) to modify the KomaMRI simulator to accommodate them as realistic spin movements to simulate diffusion MRI (dMRI) and (c) to compare these simulations with those based on the Diffusion Tensor (DT) model.
Theory And Methods: The rejection method is used for random sampling of EAPs: starting from a probability law that is easily sampled, and whose density function wraps the target EAP, samples are accepted when they lie inside the targeted region. This is used to sample the EAP as described by Mean Apparent Propagator MRI (MAP-MRI) and in Spherical Convolution (SC) based on Spherical Harmonics (SH).
