Cardiac MRI is complementary to other imaging techniques, such as [[echocardiography]], [[Computed tomography of the heart|cardiac CT]], and [[nuclear medicine]]. It can be used to assess the structure and the function of the heart.<ref>{{cite journal | vauthors = Petersen SE, Aung N, Sanghvi MM, Zemrak F, Fung K, Paiva JM, Francis JM, Khanji MY, Lukaschuk E, Lee AM, Carapella V, Kim YJ, Leeson P, Piechnik SK, Neubauer S | display-authors = 6 | title = Reference ranges for cardiac structure and function using cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) in Caucasians from the UK Biobank population cohort | journal = Journal of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance | volume = 19 | issue = 1 | pages = 18 | date = February 2017 | pmid = 28178995 | pmc = 5304550 | doi = 10.1186/s12968-017-0327-9 | publisher = Springer Science and Business Media LLC | doi-access = free }}</ref> Its applications include assessment of [[Coronary artery disease|myocardial ischemia and viability]], [[Cardiomyopathy|cardiomyopathies]], [[myocarditis]], [[iron overload]], vascular diseases, and [[congenital heart defect|congenital heart disease]].<ref>{{cite journal | title = ACCF/ACR/SCCT/SCMR/ASNC/NASCI/SCAI/SIR 2006 appropriateness criteria for cardiac computed tomography and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging.
