Supports VCG for combined anterior-inferior MI diagnosis; leaves open prospective validation before clinical adoption.
Does computer-assisted interpretation of the VCG or combined ECG-VCG improve diagnostic accuracy compared to ECG alone in complex cases with associated abnormalities?
Computer-assisted interpretation of the VCG provides a clinically useful gain in diagnostic performance over ECG alone in cases of combined anterior and inferior myocardial infarction.
