Imaging techniques play a main role in heart failure (HF) diagnosis, assessment of aetiology and treatment guidance. Echocardiography is the method of choice for its availability, cost and it provides most of the information required for the management and follow up of HF patients. Other non-invasive cardiac imaging modalities, such as cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR), nuclear imaging-positron emission tomography (PET) and single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and computed tomography (CT) could provide additional aetiological, prognostic and therapeutic information, especially in selected populations. This article reviews current indications and possible future applications of imaging modalities to improve the management of HF patients.
成像技术在心力衰竭（HF）的诊断、病因评估及治疗指导中发挥着主要作用。超声心动图因其可用性、成本效益，且能提供HF患者管理及随访所需的大部分信息，成为首选方法。其他非侵入性心脏成像模态，如心血管磁共振（CMR）、核成像——正电子发射断层扫描（PET）、单光子发射计算机断层扫描（SPECT）以及计算机断层扫描（CT），可提供额外的病因、预后及治疗信息，尤其在特定人群中。本文综述了成像模态当前的应用指征及未来可能的应用，以改善HF患者的管理。
