Why the study?
Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging has taken on a significantly increased role in diagnosing coronary artery disease and acute myocardial infarction, serving as the gold standard to differentiate ischemic from non-ischemic and acute from chronic myocardial injury.
What are the indications, contraindications, and safety of cardiac magnetic resonance imaging in patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction?

This review highlights CMR as the gold standard for differentiating ischemic from non-ischemic and acute from chronic myocardial injury in STEMI patients.
Recently, the role of cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (cardiovascular magnetic resonance) in the diagnosis of coronary artery disease and acute myocardial infarction has increased significantly. This method is defined as the gold standard for differentiation between ischemic vs non-ischemic and acute vs chronic myocardial injury. This part of the review summarizes the main methods of cardiovascular magnetic resonance, its safety, indications and contraindications.
