First paragraph (this article has no abstract)

With increasing applications of cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) for definitive diagnosis of congenital heart disease (CHD) in infants, safety of this technology is of particular interest in this age group. We report our ten-year experience with CMR in neonates and small infants with particular focus on the safety profile and incidence of adverse events.
