Overview of the cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) techniques used in the EMPA‐VISION trial. All CMR sequences will be performed at a field strength of 3 Tesla (Siemens Healthineers, Erlangen, Germany). The CMR protocol is estimated to last approximately 2 h in total, split in two 1 h slots. After resting spectroscopy, dobutamine will be infused to target 65% of age maximal heart rate and stress spectroscopy will be acquired. ¹H‐MRS, proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy; ³¹P‐MRS, phosphorus magnetic resonance spectroscopy; ECV, extracellular volume.
