Research on Infarction With Open Arteries Using OCT and CMR (NCT02270359)
Research on Infarction With Open Arteries Using OCT and CMR (RIO)
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
The purpose of this study is to determine the prevalence of plaque disruption and to assess the composition of disrupted plaques in patients with myocardial infarction (MI) and non-obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) using optical coherence tomography (OCT). Additionally, cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) will be used to detect myocardial abnormalities, which will be correlated to OCT findings to gain insight into the mechanisms of MI in patients with non-obstructive coronary artery disease (i.e. "open arteries").
