Electrocardiographic markers of myocardial infarction size, transmural extent, and extent of nonviable myocardium - comparison to CMR
نویسندگان
چکیده
Background Myocardial infarction (MI) size is an important determinant of mortality in post-MI patients, but the current gold standard test, cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (CMR), is expensive and not widely available. We sought to determine whether information from a readily available standard 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) could be utilized to estimate infarct size, extent of transmural infarction, and extent of nonviable myocardium on CMR.

متن کاملMagnetic resonance imaging for the assessment of myocardial viability.
The identification of myocardial viability in the setting of left ventricular (LV) dysfunction is crucial for the prediction of functional recovery following revascularization. Although echocardiography, positron emission tomography (PET), and nuclear imaging have validated roles, recent advances in cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) technology and availability have led to increased experience in...
متن کاملCardiovascular magnetic resonance of the myocardium at risk in acute reperfused myocardial infarction: comparison of T2-weighted imaging versus the circumferential endocardial extent of late gadolinium enhancement with transmural projection
BACKGROUND In the situation of acute coronary occlusion, the myocardium supplied by the occluded vessel is subject to ischemia and is referred to as the myocardium at risk (MaR). Single photon emission computed tomography has previously been used for quantitative assessment of the MaR. It is, however, associated with considerable logistic challenges for employment in clinical routine. Recently,...
متن کاملMyocardial Extracellular Volume Estimation by CMR Predicts Functional Recovery Following Acute MI
OBJECTIVES In the setting of reperfused acute myocardial infarction (AMI), the authors sought to compare prediction of contractile recovery by infarct extracellular volume (ECV), as measured by T1-mapping cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR), with late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) transmural extent. BACKGROUND The transmural extent of myocardial infarction as assessed by LGE CMR is a strong predi...
متن کاملExtent of myocardial hyperenhancement on late gadolinium-enhanced cardiovascular magnetic resonance correlates with q waves in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
PURPOSE Despite several electrocardiographic, echocardiographic, electrophysiologic and pathologic studies, the cause of abnormal Q waves in patients with HCM remains unclear. Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) is a powerful in vivo diagnostic tool for evaluating cardiac morphology and function. We hypothesized that estimation of segmental and transmural extent of myocardial enhancement by...
