Introduction: Heart Failure (HF) is a common syndrome with multiple causes. Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance (CMR), using the available range of technique, is establishing itself as the gold standard non invasive test for determining the underlying aetiology, adding prognostic value, guiding therapy. Progress is continuing and rapid with promising new techniques such as diffuse fibrosis assessment.
