Abstract
ENGLISH ABSTRACT: In the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, patients with cardiac
disease have been the worst affl icted with a high
mortality. Cardiac imaging forms an integral part of the
armamentarium in the management of these patients.
This review focuses on providing a general guide to cardiac
imaging in the COVID-19 context for the practising
clinician in Africa. These recommendations are likely
to be modifi ed as further data emerge on the effect of
the SARS-CoV-2 virus on the cardiovascular system.
