title: [Delayed myocardial enhancement and diagnosis of acute coronary syndrome with normal coronarography].
abstract: Cardiac MRI in patients with acute coronary syndrome with elevated troponin levels but normal coronarography can now routinely be performed on most MR units. MRI plays an important role in this clinical setting by its ability to detect myocardial infarction in patients with normal coronarography or suggest a different, potentially severe, alternate diagnosis such as myocarditis or takotsubo cardiomyopathy.
