Case 155: Early Darkness

A 53-years old came with thrombotic LAD occlusion on an angio, one day after a STEMI infarct. CMR was done 8 days later and showed this appearance on early and late Gd images.

The video explains the concept of microvascular obstruction (MVO) and how to diagnose it on CMR.

Priya had touched upon this subject in Oct 2022 and I had also discussed it while discussing IMH in Mar 2022.
