Abstract
A 73-year-old man presented with suspected acute myocardial infarction at the outpatient clinic. However, the clinical symptoms and the laboratory findings were not diagnostic. Only emergency cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was helpful in making a definitive diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction. Cardiac MRI is a useful diagnostic tool for suspected acute coronary syndrome in emergency room settings when conventional modalities do not provide a definitive diagnosis.Entities:
