Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging Scan of Patients From Both Study Groups, No Thrombus Aspiration (NTA) and Thrombus Aspiration (TA) at 6 Months: Images show a short axis slice with left ventricular end diastolic volume index (LVEDVI) measurement in first column. Short axis slices in the second column highlight the difference in left ventricular end systolic volume index (LVESVI) in the 2 treatment groups. Late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) images in the last column demonstrate the location of the infarct.
