CMRI is the exclusive imaging technique capable of identifying myocardial edema, endomyocardial fibrosis, pericarditis accompanied by pericardial effusions, and apical thrombi within either the left or right ventricle. In this work, we examine the research literature on the use of CMRI in the diagnosis of chest discomfort, employing randomized controlled trials (RCTs) to evaluate its effectiveness. The research outlines the disorders of the chest and the machine learning approaches for detecting them. In conclusion, the study ends with an examination of a fundamental illustration of CMRI analysis. To find a comprehensive review, the Scopus scientific resource is analyzed. The issue, based on the findings, is to distinguish ischemia from non-ischemic cardiac causes of chest pain in individuals presenting with sudden chest pain or discomfort upon arrival at the emergency department (ED). Due to the failure of conventional methods in accurately diagnosing acute cardiac ischemia, individuals are still being inappropriately discharged from the ED, resulting in a heightened death rate.

Introduction: Treatment failure and claims against physicians may have many negative consequences. Orthopedic surgeons have always been among the most used specialists. Therefore, the investigation of causes and the process of these claims can help reduce the negative effects of medical malpractice on physicians and society. Materials and methods: This retrospective study investigated all medical orthopedic negligence cases in Sari, Iran, from March 2015 to March 2020. Data were collected using a researcher-made checklist and analyzed in SPSS software (V-21). Results: Out of 57 finalized cases investigated in this study, surgeons were found liable in 23 (40%) cases. The mean ± SD age of patients was 41 ± 19.3. Moreover, the level of education had a positive correlation with the surgeon’s liability. The most common cause of complaint was reduced Range of motion (ROM) and the most common type of complained surgery was “open reduction & internal fixation” (ORIF). None of the surgeons were found liable due to surgical site infection or device failure. The mean ± SD time for the file processing was 11.1 ± 10.1 months. The mean indemnity payment was 320 million Iranian Rials (9.7% of indemnity for death in Iran). Conclusion: The most effective way to reduce medical complaint cases is to increase the knowledge and skill levels of physicians. The lack of a blinded arbitration system in both organizations could lead to bias in the case assessment process. Moreover, considering the long processing time of the claims, it is recommended that new technologies should be used to reduce the time and increase the accuracy of the final verdict. The absence of a ‘no-fault’ compensation program is a significant flaw in Iran violating patients’ rights. Also, more studies are needed to evaluate justice and equality in Iranian medical commissions.
