Abstract

Robust CMR imaging is required for the delineation of myocardial area at risk (AAR), so that the success of reperfusion therapies can be evaluated. In this work, we investigate the performance of T1 mapping in assessing AAR one week post-STEMI, and explore the effect of microvascular obstruction (MVO) on T1 relaxation times.
