Stockholm Myocardial Infarction With Normal Coronaries (SMINC)-2
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating CMR for Myocardial Infarction. Completed, enrolled 150 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Myocardial infarction with angiographically normal coronary arteries (MINCA) is common (7-8 % of all myocardial infarctions). There are several different causes behind MINCA where "true infarction" due to thromboembolism, myocarditis or Takotsubo stress cardiomyopathy are the main findings. The underlying diagnosis is often made by clinical findings sometimes with the help of cardiac MRI (CMR). Investigators have previously shown that it was possible to give 50 % of the patients a diagnosis made by the combination of clinical findings and CMR made in median 12 days after the acute event. The present study aim at improve the diagnostic accuracy by an early CMR with latest technique.
