Abstract
Visualization of the apex of the left ventricle is crucial in the diagnosis of many of the diseases that affect the heart. Sometimes echocardiography cannot image this region of the heart adequately, which could lead to diagnostic error. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is ideal for the correct definition of the left ventricular apex. We report three cases in which MRI provided valuable information that was unavailable at echocardiography.
