Evolution or revolution?


Despite the increase in CMR utilization in the last years, the field would certainly use a change of gears to rise to a new standard. Unique features and "killer applications" are the most important aspects for the usage of a new imaging modalities. In this regard, the last paper published online in Circulation Imaging by Ebner B et al, expanding the work published by the same group in 2008 by Flögel et al in Circulation, is a sensational piece of glimpse into the future. If applied in the clinical setting - and the authors are pretty clear of the feasibility of that idea - CMR can jump to another level of usage due to this unique capability. These scientific jumps are very welcome and the authors should be congratulated on the robust work so far.
