What is claim is: 1. A heat shield comprising a body adapted to be mounted adjacent and spaced apart a distance from a dome of an annular combustor to define a cavity therebetween, the body defining at least one fuel nozzle opening, the body having a back face facing the combustor dome when mounted to the combustor, a central ridge projecting laterally from opposed sides of the fuel nozzle opening and dividing the back face into a radially outer half and a radially inner half, said radially outer half having an outer central region adjacent said central ridge and a radially outermost region adjacent a radially outer edge of the heat shield, said outer central region being in airflow communication with said radially outermost region, said radially inner half having an inner central region adjacent said central ridge and a radially innermost region adjacent a radially inner edge of the heat shield, said inner central region being in airflow communication with said radially innermost region, a plurality of protuberances extending from the back face, the density of protuberances in said inner and outer central regions being greater than the density of protuberances in said radially innermost and outermost regions, wherein the inner and outer central regions receive cool in air admitted into the cavity, and wherein the inner and outer central regions direct the cooling air to the radially innermost and the radially outermost regions. 2. The heat shield defined in claim 1, wherein the radially innermost and outermost regions exhaust cooling air into the combustor in the radial direction. 3. The heat shield defined in claim 1, wherein the radially innermost and outermost regions, in use, require increased cooling relative to the inner and outer central regions. 4. The heat shield defined in claim 1, wherein the inner and outer central regions are adapted to be aligned with holes on the combustor for providing cooling air to the cavity. 5. The heat shield defined in claim 1, wherein the densities of protuberances in the radially innermost and outermost regions are between about 0.4 and about 0.7 of the density of protuberances in the inner and outer central regions. 6. A combustor dome comprising at least one heat shield mounted to an annular dome panel, at least one fuel nozzle opening defined in the heat shield, the heat shield having a back face facing the dome panel, the back face and the dome panel defining an air space therebetween, a ridge provided on said back face and extending laterally on each side of the nozzle opening on arc generally common with a centre of the nozzle opening, the ridge separating an inner central region from an outer central region, the inner central region being disposed radially inwardly of the ridge relative to a central axis of the combustor dome, the outer central region being disposed radially outwardly of the ridge relative to the central axis of the combustor dome, the back face having radially inner and radially outer peripheral regions respectively located radially inwardly of the inner central region and radially outwardly of the outer central region, pin fins provided on said back face, the density of pin fins in the inner and outer central regions being higher than in the radially inner and radially outer peripheral regions, and cooling holes defined in the dome panel on either side of the ridge in general alignment with the inner and outer central regions to direct cooling air against the back face of the heat shield in said inner and outer central regions, the inner and outer central regions being respectively in fluid flow communication with said radially inner peripheral region and said radially outer peripheral region for causing the cooling air received in said inner and outer central regions to respectively flow over said radially inner peripheral region and said radially outer peripheral region before being radially discharged from the heat shield into the combustor dome, wherein the radially inner and radially outer peripheral regions are hot spot regions requiring increased cooling relative to the inner and outer central regions. 7. The combustor dome defined in claim 6, wherein the densities of pin fins in the radially inner and radially outer peripheral regions is between about 0.4 and about 0.7 of the density of pin fins in the inner and outer central regions. 8. A heat shield comprising a body adapted to be mounted adjacent and spaced apart a distance from a dome of an annular combustor to define a cavity therebetween, the body defining at least one fuel nozzle opening, the body having a back face facing the combustor dome when mounted to the combustor, a central ridge projecting laterally from opposed sides of the fuel nozzle opening and dividing the back face into a radially outer half and a radially inner half, said radially outer half having an outer central region adjacent said central ridge and a radially outermost region adjacent a radially outer edge of the heat shield, said outer central region being in airflow communication with said radially outermost region, said radially inner half having an inner central region adjacent said central ridge and a radially innermost region adjacent a radially inner edge of the heat shield, said inner central region being in airflow communication with said radially innermost region, a plurality of protuberances extending from the back face, the density of protuberances in said inner and outer central regions being greater than the density of protuberances in said radially innermost and outermost regions, wherein the densities of protuberances in the radially innermost and outermost regions are between about 0.4 and about 0.7 of the density of protuberances in the inner and outer central regions.
