Comparative Evaluation of Various Combinable Magnetic Resonance (CMR) Pulse-sequences for Macrophage Imaging Using Ferucarbotran
- Conditions
- Acute Myocardial Infarction
- Interventions
- Drug: Ferucarbotran (Resovist)
- Registration Number
- NCT00886444
- 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.
