Fig. 2From: Non-contrast assessment of microvascular integrity using arterial spin labeled cardiovascular magnetic resonance in a porcine model of acute myocardial infarctionRest and stress MBF maps from two representative healthy swine. Low MBF was observed in the inferior and inferoseptal segments at rest (arrows) but was elevated during vasodilation (arrow heads). Global MBF ± physiologic noise (PN) at rest and stress are (top row) 0.87 ± 0.04 and 1.38 ± 0.02 ml/g/min and (bottom row) 0.78 ± 0.16 and 1.39 ± 0.07 ml/g/min, respectively. Inferoseptal MBF ± PN at rest are (top) 0.03 ± 0.17 and (bottom) 0.13 ± 0.25 ml/g/min. These were elevated to 0.62 ± 0.09 and 1.31 ± 0.35 ml/g/min during vasodilation, respectivelyBack to article page
