Funded Activity Summary

Heart attacks remain the leading cause of death in the western world. Many patients presenting with an acute heart attack have more than one significant narrowing in the blood vessel. After treatment of the culprit vessel, a robust non invasive imaging technique such as cardiac MRI allows us to study of the extent of damage from the heart attack. In addition, it also enables us to determine the functional significance of the non culprit vessel. This will help guide the management of these patients.
