Our study demonstrates that diabetic patients have increased myocardial edema in the infarct segment at an early time point post acute myocardial infarction which persists till the subacute phase. This may lead to deleterious left ventricular remodeling and worse outcome in these patients.

Global longitudinal and circumferential strain was assessed by echo in 15 patients after acute MI. MRI parameters including ventricular volumes, scar, and area at risk were assessed 3+/-2 days post STEMI and at 30 day follow up. Echo strain measures correlated most strongly with LVEF (r=0.81 and 0.8
