Figure 1 64-Slice CT Scan 51 Min After a Primary Angioplasty for an AMI of a 59-Year-Old Patient

Parasternal long-axis view (8-mm slice thickness) shows subendocardial hyperenhancement of the posterior wall (segments 4 and 10) (arrows). Low-dose dobutamine echocardiography confirmed myocardial viability of these segments. AMI = acute myocardial infarction; Ao = aorta; CT = computed tomography; LA = left atrium; LV = left ventricle.
