Overview

Información sobre este estudio

We have recently developed a new and novel imaging-based technique known as cardiac Magnetic Resonance Elastography (MRE) that is capable of differentiating differing regions of myocardial stiffness in the myocardium.  The condition which myocardial stiffness has been most studied and is thought to vary the most from normal is myocardial infarction. Cardiac MRE findings in acute infarction have not been established and the prognostic significance of cardiac MRE-defined infarct stiffness are unknown. The aims of this study are to compare cardiac MRE stiffness to microvascular obstruction in acute myocardial infarction, to determine the association of cardiac MRE infarct stiffness with left ventricular (LV) remodeling at approximately 6 months follow up, and to determine whether myocardial infarcts show increased stiffness at 6 months follow up.
