Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the prevalence of plaque disruption and to assess the composition of disrupted plaques in patients with myocardial infarction (MI) and non-obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) using optical coherence tomography (OCT). Additionally, cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) will be used to detect myocardial abnormalities, which will be correlated to OCT findings to gain insight into the mechanisms of MI in patients with non-obstructive coronary artery disease (i.e. "open arteries").

Conditions

Interventions

DEVICE

OCT

Optical coherence tomography (OCT): Intracoronary imaging for amount and type of plaque as well as plaque rupture, ulceration, dissection and/or thrombosis.

PROCEDURE

CMR

Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR): MRI of the heart to identify areas of infarction (damage) and/or edema (smelling)

DRUG

contrast agent, Gadolinium

Gadolinium contrast will be administered during CMR
