Brief Summary: Around 50% of patients that present with ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) have residual disease in the non-culprit lesions. If the residual disease should be treated, what should guide intervention? Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR) has been proposed as a guide for intervention, however new developments in cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) allows for non-invasive FFR measurements.

If FFR from CMR can predict physiological significant stenosis as good as FFR from invasive angiography, unnecessary invasive producers can be avoided in patients with STEMI.
Detailed Description: Early reperfusion of epicardial coronaries is essential for salvage of ischemic myocardium, reducing both morbidity and mortality in patients with ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Current European Society of Cardiology guidelines recommend percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) of the infarct related artery (IRA) for patients presenting with STEMI, with residual disease initially being treated conservatively. Large meta-analyses of observational studies have shown that PCI of the IRA only results in a reduced mortality compared to full revascularization in patients with STEMI and simultaneous multivessel disease. However, recent small randomized controlled trials indicate that full revascularization reduces morbidity, but have been underpowered to show any reduction in mortality. Furthermore, physiological guidance of coronary intervention by fractional flow reserve (FFR) reduces mortality compared to angiography guided PCI in both stable angina and non-STEMI (NSTEMI). However, if performing full revascularization guided by FFR in patients with STEMI improves clinical outcome, compared to initial conservative approach is not known.

Assessment of myocardial perfusion in rest and during pharmacological stress is widely used for non-invasive diagnosis of myocardial ischemia, where cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) has a high diagnostic accuracy. Newly developed first pass perfusion imaging with cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) allows for quantification of myocardial perfusion, and CMR derived FFR. However, it is currently not known if FFR from CMR and invasive angiography correlate with each other. If FFR from CMR can predict physiological significant stenosis as good as FFR from invasive angiography, unnecessary invasive producers can be avoided in patients with STEMI.
