Papillary muscle infarction in relation to left ventricular infarct distribution and transmurality - assessment by delayed enhancement cardiac magnetic resonance imaging. Journal of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance 14(Suppl 1): P36.1097-6647http://nrs.harvard.edu/urn-3:HUL.InstRepos:9393250This study used delayed enhancement CMR (DE-CMR) and invasive angiography to evaluate relationships between papillary muscle and left ventricular (LV) chamber wall infarction following ST segment elevation MI (STEMI). Results demonstrate that papillary muscle infarction (PMI) parallels infarct transmurality and contractile dysfunction within the adjacent LV wall.en-USPapillary Muscle Infarction in Relation to Left Ventricular Infarct Distribution and Transmurality - Assessment by Delayed Enhancement Cardiac Magnetic Resonance ImagingJournal Article2012-08-1010.1186/1532-429X-14-S1-P36
