Abstract

Cardiovascular magnetic resonance is considered the standard imaging modality in clinical trials to monitor patients after acute myocardial infarction. However, limited data are available with respect to infarct size, presence and extent of microvascular injury (MVO) and changes over time, in relation to cardiac function in optimally treated patients. In the current study we prospectively investigate the change of infarct size over time, and the incidence and significance of MVO in a uniform, optimally treated patient group after AMI.
