Cardiac magnetic resonance evaluation of the extent of myocardial injury in patients with inferior ST elevation myocardial infarction and concomitant ST depression in leads V1-V3 : Analysis from the MITOCARE Study
The aim of our study was to examine the pathophysiology of ST depression (STD) in leads V1-V3 in the setting of inferior ST elevation myocardial infarction (iSTEMI) through the perspective of cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR). Methods: Differences in myocardial area at risk (MaR), infarct size, ejection fraction and myocardial segment involvement by CMR were compared in MITOCARE trial patients with
