Abstract

The combination of multi-vessel coronary OCT and CMR in patients with a clinical diagnosis of MINOCA confirmed MI in 59% and identified an alternate cause (MINOCA mimic) in 20%. Clinical factors had limited utility to predict imaging abnormalities. No sex differences in imaging results were detected.
