Background The detection of a ventricular thrombus requires immediate anti-coagulation to prevent the risk for stroke. Prompt diagnosis is of pivotal importance. Excluding a ventricular thrombus is part of the routine assessment of reporting viability studies. We aimed to determine the detection rate of ventricular thrombus by CMR technologists before and after a teaching intervention by CMR doctors.
