Abstract:
We investigated the potential of Cine and 2D Tagged Cardiac Magnetic Resonance (CMR) Imaging to distinguish stunned from necrotic left ventricular (LV) myocardium in the early postischemic phase in an open-chest animal model (N = 12). Reversible and permanent occlusion of the LAD coronary artery resulted in global LV dysfunction in both groups without significant differences. LAD perfused segments revealed significant higher values for end systolic wall thickening (ESWT) and percentual systolic...     »
