## Background: The purpose of this study was to assess the value of technetium 99m sestamibi gated single photon emission computed tomography (spect) in predicting the evolution of left ventricular volumes in patients treated successfully in the acute phase of a myocardial infarction (mi). ## Meth
## Background Recent data have demonstrated a lower mortality in acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients with previous treatment with statins, especially in patients with high risk profiles. Moreover, a significant reduction in enzymatic infarct size in non-STEMI patients could b
