NMR detection of muscle infarction remains experimental in rats; leaves open translation to clinical myocardial imaging.
Can nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) imaging identify experimentally produced muscle infarction in a rat model?
NMR imaging can detect experimentally produced muscle infarction in a rat model, suggesting potential utility for identifying myocardial infarction.
Herfkens et al. (1983) studied this question.
