NCT03968445

Brief Summary

The purpose of the study is to see if positron emission tomography and magnetic resonance imaging (PET/MRI) with an investigational drug called \[18F\]DPA-714 will show inflammation in the brain after a heart attack. This study may help physicians and researchers better understand the role of brain inflammation in heart disease and develop new treatments to protect the brain.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • TPSO-PET measurement of neuroinflammation after acute myocardial infarction

    The regional brain concentrations of \[F-18\]DPA-714, a PET imaging marker of neuroinflammation, will be compared between study participants who have recently been hospitalized for acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and a control group undergoing elective percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI).
