Just recorded #ACCEL audio with Dr.Weinsaft Dr. @ChrisKramerMD
Discussed exciting #whyCMR data on Identification of LV thrombi by CMR
Some deep dives into the thread.
->in a nutshell, diagnostic accuracy, and prognostic data with #whyCMR identification of thrombus

This study in #JACCIMG
-> LV thrombus can happen in absence of aneurysm in cases of LAD MI
-> apical wall motion on a non-contrast #Echofirst -> stratification tool to identify patients who may benefit from #WhyCMR

this study of N=784 pts
LGE on #WhyCMR detected thrombus in 7%
cine-CMR in 4.7% of pts.
-> Missed thrombi on cine included small intracavitary & small mural thrombus.
-> Prevalence increased with worse LVEF, ischemic etiology, &
myocardial scarring.

another study with #echofirst and #whyCMR data!
- Thrombus morphology affects LV thrombus assessment on imaging testing!
- LGE on CMR > Cine CMR > Contrast TTE > regular TTE
