The Role of Cardiac Magnetic Resonance in the Evaluation of Patients Presenting with Suspected or Confirmed Acute Coronary Syndrome
Figure 4
Myocardial infarction with normal coronary arteries. Images from a patient presenting with chest pain, elevated troponin but normal coronary arteries. Cine-SSFP images at (a) diastole and (b) systole demonstrate a wall motion abnormality in the inferoseptum and anterolateral walls. weighted imaging (c) shows focal areas of edema in these regions. (d) LGE imaging demonstrates epicardial-delayed enhancement. These findings are consistent with the diagnosis of myocarditis.
