After a myocardial infarction (MI), despite the resolution of the coronary occlusion, the
deterioration of myocardial perfusion persists in a considerable number of patients. This …

Introduction Myocardial hemorrhage (IMH) and persistent microvascular obstruction (MVO)
are associated with impaired myocardial recovery and adverse clinical outcomes in STEMI …

Cardiac magnetic resonance-tissue tracking (CMR-TT)-derived myocardial strain after ST-
