Summary:Meeting abstracts - A single PDF containing all abstracts in this supplement is available at http://www.biomedcentral.com/content/files/pdf/1532-429X-13-S1-full.pdf.EMPTY Introduction Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance (CMR) permits a comprehensive assessment of infarct characteristics following acute myocardial infarction (AMI). [...] we aimed to assess whether CMR data acquired at 'day 2' post-AMI are stronger predictors of infarct size and left ventricular (LV) function, measured at 3 months follow up, than data acquired at '1 week'.
