Abstract
Takotsubo cardiomyopathy is an important differential diagnosis for acute chest pain. Imaging tests, such as ventriculography, echocardiography, computed tomography of the heart, and cardiac magnetic resonance, are valuable tools for diagnostic confirmation in this context. This study reviews the literature and exemplifies the spectrum of typical and atypical cardiac magnetic resonance findings in this disease, on the basis of the experience of our facility. Recognition of these characteristics underscores the roles that radiologists and cardiologists play in the care of patients with acute chest pain, enabling an accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment.
