Myocardial Infarction Imaging

Myocardial infarction imaging refers to various techniques used to visualize the heart and assess damage after a heart attack. Common methods include echocardiography (ultrasound of the heart), coronary angiography (X-ray imaging of blood vessels), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). These imaging techniques help doctors understand the extent of heart muscle damage, identify blocked arteries, and determine the best treatment options. Accurate imaging is crucial for effective diagnosis and management, ensuring the best possible outcomes for patients affected by a heart attack.
