Advantages:
 
* It can be used in cases where [[echocardiographic]] results are inconclusive.
* Helps in measuring heart volumes, blood flow and ventricular wall thickness.
* The [[magnetic resonance angiography]] helps in better visualization of heart vasculature.
* Phase velocity mapping helps in measuring the ratio of pulmonary to systemic blood flow (Qp:Qs).  
 
Disadvantage:


*For an MRI procedure to be successful, the patient will need to hold their breath, which is sometimes difficult to achieve with small kids. Due to this, the procedure is done under general [[anesthesia]] in children.
*Assessment of [[cardiac anatomy]]  and function with a high spatial resolution
*Assessment of complications of Fontan circuit 
*Assessment of [[vascular anatomy]]
*Assessment of [[ventricular volume]] and [[systolic]] and [[diastolic]] function
*Assessment of [[flow velocity]]
*Assessment of myocardial focal [[fibrosis ]]  
*Assessment of thrombosis in Fontan circuit
