The aim of this paper is to present recent advances in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) diagnosis and treatment based on a literature review. Special emphasis has been placed on the role of cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) for the assessment of morphological and functional consequences of different stages of HCM including prognostication. The text is illustrated with the images and data of the HCM patients diagnosed with CMR study in our hospital. CMR is an important tool, particularly relevant in novel risk factors and LV dysfunction groups. The HCM group with overt left ventricular dysfunction is underrecognized, often labelled by clinicians as dilated cardiomyopathy. Advanced diagnostic and management strategies effectively influence the natural history of HCM.
