About this trial

Following myocardial infarction, female individuals demonstrate a poorer prognosis, characterized by elevated rates of mortality and heart failure. A primary hypothesis suggests unfavorable cardiac remodeling in women. This remodeling, defined as alterations in cardiac size and shape post-infarction, necessitates repeated non-invasive imaging for study.
