Rapid Diagnosis of Myocardial Damage and Coronary Stenosis With Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)

Completed

• Conditions: Myocardial Infarction

• Registration Number: NCT00188123
• Lead Sponsor: University Hospital, Linkoeping

Brief Summary

The hypothesis is that single-shot imaging of myocardial infarction is possible in atrial fibrillation using MRI late enhancement technique

Detailed Description

50 outpatients in Jonkoping County with a diagnosis of in-hospital myocardial infarction, are asked to participate in this study comparing segmented true FISP late enhancement with single-shot trueFISP late enhancement for the diagnosis of myocardial damage. The study does not intervene regarding treatment but is a comparison of the diagnostic power of the two MRI techniques.
