RESUMEN
Non-compact right ventricular myocardium is a rare type of cardiomyopathy, it usually results from arrested myocardial development during embryogenesis. This disease can be characterized by excessive prominent trabeculations and deep inter-trabecular recesses in the ventricular wall. It might be a component of biventricular non-compact cardiomyopathy or an isolated form. The article presents a review of the literature on the clinic and radiation diagnostics of non-compact right ventricular myocardium with the presentation of the issues of differential diagnosis.

An accurate quantitative assessment of myocardium necrosis area and the viable zone (stunned and hibernating) in patients with myocardial infarction is crucial for the preoperative patient selection and predicting the cardiac surgery effectiveness. Currently, researchers and clinicians are most interested in the problem of determining the viable myocardium zone. However, only the necrosis zone area directly correlates with the patients prognosis and determines the heart pathological remodeling processes. In the distant period, the data obtained can be used to predict the post-infarction period course or for analysis the relationship of the necrosis zone with arrhythmogenesis, and a number of other indicators. Thus, the necrosis zone and the viable myocardium zone are two parameters that need to be monitored in dynamics in all patients after myocardial infarction. The most accurate and reproducible method for determining the necrosis area is contrast magnetic resonance imaging of the heart, however, this technique is still inaccessible in most hospitals. In this regard, it remains relevant to estimate the necrotic myocardium area by ubiquitous non-invasive methods such as electrocardiography and echocardiography.

Heart sarcoidosis diagnosis presents great difficulties due to the absence of specific clinical manifestations. Most often, the diagnosis is established during autopsy. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the heart with contrast enhancement is one of the most informative methods of intravital diagnosis of cardiac sarcoidosis. In this article, two clinical cases, shows the role of MRI of the heart with contrast enhancement in the diagnosis of cardiac sarcoidosis.
