Characterisation of patients with and without cardiac magnetic resonance imaging abnormalities presenting with myocardial infarction with non-obstructive coronary arteries (MINOCA).

Conclusions: A significant number of patients with MINOCA have ischaemic LGE changes or myocardial wall oedema. The patients with CMR abnormalities have similar ECG and echocardiographic features except higher biomarker, highlighting the role of CMR in patients with MINOCA.
