Abstract
Background Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a source of significant mortality and morbidity in diabetes mellitus (DM). Abnormal myocardial perfusion reserve (MPR) has been shown to predict worse outcome in patients with diabetes, but limited data is available using CMR. The correlation of MPR derived from Cardiac Magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) with plaque burden on cardiac computed tomography angiography (CTA) has not been previously evaluated. We aim to look at this correlation in patients undergoing vasodilator stress CMR.
