“…The evaluation of myocardial viability by MRI has made a high impact in the literature, particularly after the study developed by Kim et al (11) , demonstrating that the presence of myocardial viability, defined as regional functional recovery following revascularization, can be determined by the quantification of infarct transmurality. This same study has also demonstrated that the greater the dysfunctional myocardial mass viable prior to the intervention, the greater the overall recovery of the ejection fraction following the revascularization (11)(12)(13) . Figure 4 demonstrates the measurement of the infarcted mass analyzed in conjunction with the total left ventricular mass at diastole, resulting in a percentage of infarcted mass which, in the present study corresponded to 22%.…”

“…Besides functional and contractility alterations identified on cine-MRI studies, an inversion recovery sequence with high resolution performed about ten minutes after intravenous gadolinium injection is the main technique utilized in the diagnosis of myocardial infarction and is currently known as delayed myocardial enhancement technique (10)(11)(12)(13) .…”

patient it seemed to resolve post-op Day 2, responding only to surgery having been refractory medically prior to that.In summary, cardiogenic pulmonary oedema remains a possible and sufficient explanation for asymmetric right upper lobe pulmonary abnormalities in a patient with significant mitral valve regurgitation. Transthoracic and/or transoesophageal echocardiography with particular attention to mitral regurgitation jet direction and demonstration of regurgitant systolic reversal of flow into right pulmonary vein(s) would corroborate this diagnosis. Clinical judgment may mandate the need to exclude other coexisting pulmonary pathology, but indeed the sole underlying pathology may be cardiac. Such pulmonary oedema may persist despite aggressive medical measures and resolve only after surgical correction of the valve dysfunction.
