✦ Synopsis

EF assessed by echocardiography and EF assessed by CMR are only moderately correlated. The exact quantification of EF by CMR provides additional prognostic information and may affect further treatment strategies, such as intensification of medication including aldosterone antagonist use or even device therapy.
