A novel multimodal imaging approach for working diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction with non-obstructive coronary arteries: a promising diagnostic strategy
An acute CCTA-CMR protocol may aid in distinguishing ischemic from non-ischemic myocardial injury in presumed MINOCA and unmasks occult high-risk plaques. This multimodal imaging approach reveals occult high-risk coronary plaques and enhances diagnostic accuracy, thereby supporting mechanism-targeted management strategies in patients presenting with troponin-positive chest pain.
