Official Title: Cardiac MRI Extracellular Volume Associated With New-Onset Atrial Fibrillation in Patients With ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction
Brief Summary:
Left ventricular fibrosis is strongly associated with atrial fibrillation (AF).However, the relationship between LV fibrosis and new-onset AF (NOAF) after ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is currently unknown.This study was to investigate the relationship between different regions of ECV and NOAF during the acute phase of STEMI.ECV in integral (integral ECV), non-myocardial infarction region (NMI-ECV) and myocardial infarction region (MI-ECV) was obtained by CMR.
