Abstract
Right ventricular (RV) edema on T2-weighted imaging and late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) at an early time point have been shown to indicate RV injury post acute myocardial infarction (AMI). However, recent data suggest that cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) in the acute setting may overestimate RV injury. We therefore sought to characterize the evolution of RV function, volumes and the presence of LGE and edema at three time points post AMI in order to attempt to determine the optimal time point to assess RV injury.
