Did a presentation on a case study @ school. On 14th Sep 09. Had fun. Uploading this just to remember by. :)

6. Chest X-Rays (fig a. Front View) (fig b. Side View) Chest X-rays Showing Enlargement of Heart (3)

7. ECG: Electro Cardiogram

10. Arteriogram/Angiogram (2) Figure a. Arteriogram OR Coronary Angiogram Figure b. Cardiac Catheterization

12. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (6) Panels A–D: MRI study at baseline demonstrates slight apical hypokinesis in end-systolic phase (arrows in D, C = end-diastolic phase). In A and B, short-axis delayed-enhanced MR images show multiple foci in the sub-epicardium and the midwall (arrows in A and B) and the acute ECG shows ST-elevation (arrows). At 3-months follow-up (E–H), systolic function normalized (G and H) and delayed-enhancement demonstrates resolution of inflammatory foci (E and F, identical location as in A and B) with ECG normalization (F/u).

14. Radionuclide Imaging (7) (Fig.) Stress and rest images from single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) of a 52-yr-old man with recent-onset angina. Images obtained during stress show a large area of ischemia in the territory fed by the left anterior descending (LAD) artery that is absent at rest. Angiography confirmed a 95 to 99% occlusion involving the bifurcation of the LAD at the first diagonal branch.
