Society for Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance (SCMR) guidance for the practice of cardiovascular magnetic resonance during the COVID-19 pandemic. Journal of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance, 22(1), 26. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12968-020-00628-w1532-429Xhttps://hdl.handle.net/1805/23116The aim of this document is to provide general guidance and specific recommendations on the practice of cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) in the era of the COVID-19 pandemic. There are two major considerations. First, continued urgent and semi-urgent care for the patients who have no known active COVID-19 should be provided in a safe manner for both patients and staff. Second, when necessary, CMR on patients with confirmed or suspected active COVID-19 should focus on the specific clinical question with an emphasis on myocardial function and tissue characterization while optimizing patient and staff safety.en-USAttribution 4.0 InternationalCOVID-19Cardiovascular Magnetic ResonanceRecommendationsSafetyArticle
