BackgroundIn the setting of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), imaging-based biomarkers could be useful for guiding oral anticoagulation for primary prevention of stroke. ObjectivesTo test the efficacy of intraventricular blood stasis imaging for predicting a composite primary endpoint of cardioembolic risk during the first 6 months after STEMI. MethodsThe Imaging Silent Brain Infarct in Acute Myocardial Infarction (ISBITAMI, NCT02917213) was a prospective clinical study inclu...
