The main aim of this study was to characterize changes in the left ventricular (LV) blood flow kinetic energy (KE) using four-dimensional (4D) flow cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) in patients with myocardial infarction (MI) with/without LV thrombus (LVT). This is a prospective cohort study of 108 subjects [controls = 40, MI patients...

SEcho is superior to ExECG in the risk stratification of patients with suspected ACS but negative troponin. SEcho resulted in less diagnostic uncertainty, fewer referrals for further investigation, and hence, a significant cost benefit over ExECG.

Thus several different modalities allow cost-effective community-based screening for LVSD, especially in high-risk subjects. Such programmes would be cost-effective and miss few cases of LVSD in the community.
