Case Report: A case report of myocardial fibrosis activation assessment after unstable angina using 68Ga-FAPI-04 PET/CT

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

However, there is a notable absence of data regarding patients with short-term myocardial ischemia, such as those experiencing unstable angina (UA). In this report, we evaluated a 49-year-old male with UA and severe stenosis in multiple coronary arteries using 68 Ga-FAPI-04 PET/CT.

How does Acute Total Left Main Coronary occlusion present on the ECG?

Dr. Smith's ECG Blog

At the bottom of the post, I have re-printed the section on aVR in my article on the ECG in ACS from the Canadian Journal of Cardiology: New Insights Into the Use of the 12-Lead Electrocardiogram for Diagnosing Acute Myocardial Infarction in the Emergency Department Case 1. This was a 100% acute LM occlusion. TIMI 0/1 flow).(61,62)
