ng/mL This single initial troponin at this level, in the context of chest pain, is high enough to be diagnostic of acute myocardial infarction. A CT Coronary angiogram was ordered. Here are the results: --Minimally obstructive coronary artery disease. --LAD Her initial cTnI returned at 0.25 CAD-RADS category 1. --No

Diagnosis of Type I vs. Type II Myocardial Infarction in Emergency Department patients with Ischemic Symptoms (abstract 102). The angiogram showed scattered mild luminal irregularities of the LAD, the LCx, and the RCA and a 95% distal RCA occlusion in a right dominant system. This was a presumed culprit and a stent was placed.

He denied any known medical history, specifically: coronary artery disease, hypertension, dyslipidemia, diabetes, heart failure, myocardial infarction, or any prior PCI/stent. Learning points 1] Acute Coronary Syndrome has many shades of clinical manifestation. No appreciable skin pallor.

Cardiology felt her chest pain to be, most likely, the result of coronary supply-demand mismatch in the context of HCM endothelial remodeling (i.e. Type II MI), however decided to pursue coronary angiogram out of an abundance of caution. A mid-LAD culprit lesion was identified and stented. Pacing Clin Electrophysiol.

Stone, MD Mount Sinai Health System tim.hodson Wed, 04/02/2025 - 15:26 March 31, 2025 Using intravascular imaging (IVI) to guide stent implantation during complex stenting procedures is safer and more effective for patients with severely calcified coronary artery disease than conventional angiography, the more commonly used technique.

A CTCA provides much more anatomical detail and can identify advanced plaque often missed by CT Coronary Artery Calcium Score scans alone. CT Coronary Artery Calcium Score Scan CT Coronary Artery Calcium Score CT Coronary Angiogram As you can see from the above images, the CTCA provides far more anatomical detail.

His father and brother both died of myocardial infarction at ages 61 and 45, respectively. There is appreciable STE aVR with near-global STD that appropriately maximizes in Leads II and V5, and thus suggesting a circumstance of generic, diffusely populated, circumferential subendocardial ischemia versus occlusive coronary thrombus.
