Comparative Evaluation of Various Combinable Magnetic Resonance (CMR) Pulse-sequences for Macrophage Imaging Using Ferucarbotran

Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Acute Myocardial Infarction
Interventions
Drug: Ferucarbotran (Resovist)
Registration Number
NCT00886444
Lead Sponsor
Robert Bosch Gesellschaft für Medizinische Forschung mbH
Brief Summary

The aim of this study is to:

* clarify whether macrophage imaging using ferucarbotran is able to delineate the region of myocardial infarction as accurate as gadolinium-based necrosis/fibrosis imaging;

* identify possible differences in infarct imaging using ferucarbotran for macrophage imaging compared to necrosis/fibrosis imaging with gadolinium-based compounds; and

* evaluate which MRI pulse-sequences maximise sensitivity for macrophage imaging with ferucarbotran in the setting of acute myocardial infarction.
