Relationship between Late Gadolinium Enhancement Extent in Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Severity of Coronary Artery Disease in Old Myocardial Infarction
Purpose: To assess the relationship between the severity of coronary arteries involvement and the extent and pattern of myocardial scars in Cardiac Magnetic Resonance of patients with history of remote myocardial infarction. Materials and Methods: The Cardiac Magnetic Resonance images of sixty patients with history of remote ST segment or non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction were ...
متن کاملCoronary Microvascular Obstruction
During the past decades, advances in percutaneous coronary intervention and antithrombotic therapy have improved the prognosis of patients with ST-segment–elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). However, in a substantial number of STEMI patients, myocardial perfusion remains impaired despite successful recanalization of the infarct-related epicardial coronary artery, and this scenario has been...
متن کاملIncreased extracellular volume in asymptomatic cocaine abusers detected by cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging
Background Cocaine abuse is associated with an increased risk for coronary artery disease and myocardial infarction. However, there is a paucity of data on myocardial injury in asymptomatic cocaine abusers. T1 mapping cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) has the ability to quantify diffuse alterations in myocardial tissue composition by assessing the extracellular volume fraction (ECV). This...
متن کاملMyocardial ischemia in the absence of epicardial coronary artery disease in Friedreich's ataxia
We present the first in vivo detection of microvascular abnormality in a patient with Friedreich's ataxia (FA) without epicardial coronary artery disease using cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR). The patient had exertional chest pain and dyspnea prompting referral for cardiac evaluation. These symptoms were reproduced during intravenous adenosine infusion, and simultaneous first-pass perfusion im...
متن کاملMultiple myocardial bridge in a 59 year-old woman
Introduction: Myocardial bridging is a congenital condition in which a segment of a major epicardial coronary artery has an intra myocardial route. Myocardial bridging is usually confined to a single vessel and is typically the mid segment of the left anterior descending artery. Bridging may be associated with chest pain, myocardial infarction, and sudden cardiac death, or usually asymptomati...
