Résumé

Sarcoidosis is a chronic disease of unknown etiology characterized by the presence of noncaseating granulomas. Cardiac involvement in sarcoidosis may lead to adverse outcomes such as advanced heart block, arrhythmias, cardiomyopathy, or death. Cardiac sarcoidosis can occur in patients with established sarcoidosis, or it can be the sole manifestation of the disease. Traditional diagnostic techniques, including echocardiography, have poor sensitivity for diagnosing cardiac sarcoidosis. The accumulating evidence supports the essential role of advanced cardiac imaging modalities such as MRI and PET in diagnosis, risk stratification, and management of patients with cardiac sarcoidosis. The current review highlights important theoretic and practical aspects of using cardiac imaging tools in the evaluation of patients with suspected or established cardiac sarcoidosis.
