摘要

Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has become a vital noninvasive imaging modality in modern cardiology, offering essential diagnostic information, risk stratification and treatment planning, especially in ischemia and myocarditis assessments. Together with echocardiography, cardiac MRI is a core competency in the field. A growing demand for cardiac MRI necessitates a robust infrastructure for high-quality patient care. The recent decision by the German Federal Joint Committee (G-BA) to evaluate cardiac MRI for ischemia and myocarditis assessments marks a significant step toward integrating this technology into contract physician services and improving accessibility. This development requires service providers to exhibit expertise and use modern equipment. The number of certified cardiologists in cardiac MRI surged from 71 in 2012 to 446 in 2024, reflecting a strong foundation for meeting demands. Comprehensive training programs with defined competency levels (I–III) are crucial for specialist qualification. Integrating cardiac MRI training into cardiology residency programs, aligned with international standards, aims to enhance quality assurance and ensure improved access to this diagnostic tool for better patient care.
