Brief Summary

Myocardial infarction with angiographically normal coronary arteries (MINCA) is common (7-8 % of all myocardial infarctions). There are several different causes behind MINCA where "true infarction" due to thromboembolism, myocarditis or Takotsubo stress cardiomyopathy are the main findings. The underlying diagnosis is often made by clinical findings sometimes with the help of cardiac MRI (CMR). Investigators have previously shown that it was possible to give 50 % of the patients a diagnosis made by the combination of clinical findings and CMR made in median 12 days after the acute event. The present study aim at improve the diagnostic accuracy by an early CMR with latest technique.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Diagnostic accuracy of an early CMR with the latest technique

    Show that the more patients get a definite diagnosis (70%) when compared to a historical sample (50%)

    2-4 days after admission

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Number of patients with correct diagnosis with echocardiography

    12 months

  • Number of patients with a postive CT angiography and infarction on CMR

    1 month

  • Describe QoL over time

    12 months

Study Arms (2)

Prospective MINCA patients

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Patients with MINCA prospectively investigated with an early CMR with latest technique

Procedure: CMR

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Patients with MINCA investigated earlier with a late CMR (median 12 days)

Procedure: CMR

Interventions

CMRPROCEDURE

Intervention performed 2-4 days after admission to hospital with the latest CMR technique including sensitive oedema sequences using T1 mapping

Historical MINCA patientsProspective MINCA patients
