The imaging spectrum of myocardial infarction and its associated complications: a contemporary pictorial review of computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging.
Review in Diagnostic and interventional radiology (Ankara, Turkey), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Myocardial infarction (MI) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Although rapid diagnosis and reperfusion in the acute setting rely primarily on clinical assessment, electrocardiography, echocardiography, and invasive coronary angiography, advanced cardiac imaging plays an essential role beyond the hyperacute phase. Cardiac computed tomography (CCT) and cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging provide complementary information that extends from coronary anatomy to myocardial tissue characterization and functional assessment. CMR imaging enables the comprehensive, multiparametric evaluation of MI, including left ventricular function, myocardial edema and area at risk, infarct size and transmural extent, microvascular obstruction, intramyocardial hemorrhage, myocardial viability, and ischemia using cine imaging, T1/T2 and T2* mapping, perfusion imaging, and late gadolinium enhancement. These features support an accurate differentiation between acute and chronic infarction, an assessment of myocardial salvage, and prognostic stratification. CCT offers a rapid, non-invasive assessment of coronary artery stenosis and plaque characteristics and has expanded to include an evaluation of ventricular function, myocardial perfusion, and delayed-enhancement patterns. When combined with CT-derived fractional flow reserve or myocardial perfusion imaging, CT allows for an integrated anatomic and functional assessment of the myocardium, particularly for non-culprit lesions, following MI. Myocardial delayed-enhancement CT can visualize the infarcted myocardium and microvascular injury in select patients, though it remains complementary to magnetic resonance imaging. This pictorial essay illustrates the imaging spectrum of MI and its major mechanical and thromboembolic complications, including ventricular rupture, septal defects, papillary muscle rupture, aneurysm formation, left ventricular thrombi, and pericardial disease. By highlighting the strengths and limitations of CCT and CMR and providing practical guidance for modality selection, this article aims to support informed clinical decision-making in the contemporary management of patients with MI.
