Description

Highlights: • This study investigated bias between 2D TTE and CMR measurements in a large cohort of STEMI patients. • 2D TTE underestimates LV volumes and overestimates LVM when compared to CMR. • Enzymatic infarct size, age, sex, and heart rate are potential sources of bias between 2D TTE and CMR-derived measurements. - Abstract: BackgroundThis study was designed to investigate the agreement of 2D transthoracic echocardiography (2D TTE) with cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) in a contemporary population of ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients.
