- Title
First-pass perfusion CMR two days after infarction predicts severity of functional impairment six weeks later in the rat heart.
- Abstract
The article presents a research study which introduces a method in which a T1 weighted Magnetic Resonance (MR) image is acquired during each cardiac cycle in order to determine perfusion delays in the infarcted heart of rat. The study shows that first-pass Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance (CMR) presents a predictive measure about the severity of myocardial impairment in a rodent model of heart failure.
