Abstract
In order to determine the cardioprotective efficacy of acute reperfusion therapy, assessed as myocardial salvage, in patients with acute coronary occlusion, the final myocardial infarct (MI) size needs to be related to the amount of ischemic myocardium during coronary occlusion, referred to as the myocardium at risk (MaR). There are currently several imaging approaches available for quantification of both MI size and MaR in vivo of which some have been validated both in pre-clinical and clinical settings. These methods often involve the use of either myocardial perfusion SPECT or cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR). These imaging methods could potentially be used to further develop and validate ECG methods for determination of MI size and... (More)
