T1 and T2 mapping reveal contribution of hemorrhage in myocardial remodeling following acute myocardial infarction
نویسندگان
چکیده
Background Hemorrhage is a frequent complication in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and is speculated to be an independent predictor of adverse outcomes [1]. In addition to infarct zone remodeling, the distal remote myocardium may experience alterations vasodilator dysfunction, edema, and extracellular matrix (ECM) expansion [2-4]. The aim of our study was to understand the impact of hemorrhage on infarct as well as remote myocardial remodeling following an ischemic event. To this end, we employed quantitative T1 and T2 mapping to probe the underlying tissue alterations in a novel hemorrhagic model of AMI.

T1, T2 and T2* mapping following acute myocardial infarction in a porcine model: Regional and serial alterations during infarct healing
Background Quantitative T1 and T2 cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) approaches have been utilized to detect edema post acute myocardial infarction (AMI). However, a systematic comparison between the two measures is currently lacking. Furthermore, these relaxation measurements may also be confounded by opposing effects of intramyocardial hemorrhage that is typically not taken into account....

Background Currently, myocardial edema monitoring after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is based on visualization of the region with increased signal-intensity on T2weighted images. Native T1 and T2 mapping are promising novel MRI techniques to quantitatively assess myocardial edema. The purpose of the study was to quantitatively evaluate resorption of myocardial edema following AMI by native...

Background Reperfusion injury in acute myocardial infarction (MI) results in edema, necrosis, microvascular obstruction (MVO), and intramyocardial hemorrhage (IMH), the latter presents an interesting clinical target. [1] Cardiovascular MRI has been shown capable of characterizing all of these tissue components. Other than MVO, which is currently detected by flow-deficient regions in contrast en...

BACKGROUND The presence of intramyocardial hemorrhage (IMH) in ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction patients reperfused by primary percutaneous coronary intervention has been associated with residual myocardial iron at follow-up, and its impact on adverse left ventricular (LV) remodeling is incompletely understood and is investigated here. METHODS AND RESULTS Forty-eight ST-segment-elev...
متن کاملContribution of reperfusion hemorrhage to T2 and T2* CMR in the quantification of hemorrhage extent and area-at-risk after acute myocardial infarction
Background In acute myocardial infarction (AMI), reperfusion injury is often associated with hemorrhage and microvascular obstruction (MVO), which are independent predictors of poor patient outcomes. T2 and T2* cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) approaches have been instrumental in detecting hemorrhage; however, the relative sensitivity of each of these measures remains to be investigated....
