摘要

Hypertension is currently one of the most prevalent illnesses worldwide,and is the second most common cause of heart failure,only behind ischemic cardiomyopathy.The development of novel multimodality imaging techniques in recent years has broadened the diagnostic methods,risk stratification and monitoring of treatment of cardiovascular diseases available for clinicians.Cardiovascular magnetic resonance(CMR)has a great capacity to evaluate cardiac dimensions and ventricular function,is extremely useful in ruling-out ischemic cardiomyopathy,the evaluation of the vascular system,in making the differential diagnosis for resistant hypertension and risk stratification for hypertensive cardiomyopathy and constitutes today,the method of choice to evaluate left ventricular systolic function.Computed tomography(CT)is the method of choice for the evaluation of vascular anatomy,including coronary arteries,and is also able to provide both functional and structural information.Finally,nuclear cardiology studies have been traditionally used to evaluate myocardial ischemia,along with offering the capacity to evaluate ventricular,endothelial and cardiac innervation function;information that is key in directing the treatment of the patient.In this narrative review,the most recent contributions of multimodality imaging to the patient with hypertension(CMR,CT and nuclear cardiology)will be reviewed.
