Ultra-sensitive Magnetocardiography in the Accurate Identification of Myocardial Infarction
Magnetocardiography (MCG) is a promising noninvasive and accurate method for detecting myocardial infarction. Although progress has been made in this area, there is a lack of studies using up-to-date examination instruments for the calibration of MCG analysis. This is a prospective single-center study aiming to build accurate analytical models of MCG to detect myocardial infarction. Myocardial infarction are diagnosed by electrocardiogram, biomarkers (high-sensitivity cardiac troponin, etc), or non-invasive imaging (cardiac magnetic resonance or single-photon-emission tomography). Myocardial infarction is also quantified by cardiac magnetic resonance or single-photon-emission tomography. Healthy volunteers and chest pain patients who will receive electrocardiogram, biomarkers (high-sensitivity cardiac troponin, etc), or non-invasive imaging (cardiac magnetic resonance or single-photon-emission tomography) examination will be enrolled in this study.
• Age 18-79 years old;
• No history of cardiovascular disease (coronary heart disease, structural heart disease, arrhythmia, heart failure, stroke, pulmonary embolism, aortic dissection, etc.), no cardiovascular risk factors (hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia). For people over 65 years old, those with hypertension or hyperlipidemia, but with well-controlled blood pressure and lipid levels, taking no more than 2 drugs, and echocardiography showing no left ventricular hypertrophy, can be included;
• The electrocardiogram is normal, and the cardiac ultrasound is basically normal in the past 1 year (mild valvular regurgitation can be included).
• Sign the informed consent.
• Age 18-79 years old;
• Those with chest pain symptoms, diagnosed or highly suspected by the attending doctor or above as stable angina pectoris (SA), unstable angina pectoris (UA), non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI), ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), and plan to receive electrocardiogram, biomarkers (high-sensitivity cardiac troponin, etc), or non-invasive imaging (cardiac magnetic resonance or single-photon-emission tomography);
• Sign the informed consent.
