It is interesting to note that it has been assumed that the postischemia/reperfusion edematous reaction is stable for several days after myocardial infarction. On this basis, experimental and clinical studies performed CMR examinations at a variable time after myocardial infarction. Our group recently demonstrated in a pig model of transmural myocardial infarction that myocardial edema after ischemia/reperfusion is not stable but rather follows a bimodal pattern.2 In this model, an initial hyperacute edema reaction on reperfusion largely resolves within 24 hours, and is followed by a deferred healing-related edema wave occurring a few days after reperfusion.3 This coordinated bimodal edema pattern suggests that CMR-quantified MaR may vary according to the day of imaging and degree of injury (and subsequent healing), but to date this has not been tested in a controlled manner.In the present article,1 intriguing data about histological (blue-dye injection) versus CMR (edema) measurements of the MaR are presented. Although the median of histological reference MaR was similar in all experimental groups (≈50% of the left ventricle), an important underestimation of MaR by T2-weighted short-tau inversion recovery CMR was reported at 24 hours in all study groups. Although individual comparison is not possible with the data presented, it is remarkable that even in placebo animals, a ≈25% underestimation of MaR by CMR was observed (47.5% of left ventricle by histology versus 36.2% by 24-hour CMR). Thus, it seems plausible that the physiological resorption of the initial wave of edema contributed to these histology-CMR discrepancies. In fact, according to the data presented, salvage index quantification [1 – (infarct size/MaR), %] in placebo animals using dye histology or 24-hour CMR would be as disparate as 14% or 35%, respectively.Consequently, although the infarct-limiting effect of ticagrelor in this article is robust, its effect on edema is less. The authors used T2-weighted short-tau inversion recovery CMR sequence, which suffers from technical limitations. Conversely, quantitative T2 mapping has been shown to strongly correlate with actual myocardial water content measurements.4 It might be that the use of T2 mapping and, especially, a serial imaging protocol, including a hyperacute and later time points, would have helped in the interpretation of the mechanisms leading to injury sparing by ticagrelor.Overall, we believe that the work by Vilahur et al adds incremental evidence of the risks of using nonstandardized CMR protocols and timings to measure MaR.Rodrigo Fernandez-Jimenez, MDJavier Sanchez-Gonzalez, PhDBorja Ibanez, MD, PhDDisclosuresDr Sánchez-González is an employee of Philips Healthcare.
