Abstract：Coronary microvascular disease(CMVD)is highly prevalent and carries significant potential for triggering serious cardiovascular complications,necessitating heightened clinical attention.Early detection and diagnosis of CMVD are critical for preventing these adverse outcomes.Magnetocardiography(MCG),a safe and non-invasive imaging modality,demonstrates considerable potential for diagnosing CMVD and evaluating treatment efficacy,owing to its unique advantages.While an increasing number of global clinical studies are exploring MCG's role in CMVD diagnosis,classification,and prognostic assessment,existing clinical guidelines lack standardized evidence levels and recommendation grades for its application.This underscores an urgent need for a unified,evidence-based framework for MCG-based CMVD diagnosis.A further challenge is the inconsistency in CMVD diagnostic criteria across institutions,stemming from variations in MCG equipment,methodologies,and analytical techniques.To address these critical issues,Chinese experts have formulated a clinical consensus statement on the use of MCG for CMVD diagnosis.Synthesizing the latest research evidence and considering the specific context of China's healthcare system,this consensus aims to standardize MCG protocols,bridge implementation gaps,and accelerate the adoption of MCG across diverse clinical settings.Its publication is anticipated to significantly advance China's progress in CMVD research and diagnostics.
