Objective: The aim was to analyse the relationship between magnetic resonance (MR) imaging parameters and myocardial water content early after coronary occlusion with or without reperfusion. Methods: 21 pigs were used. After 78 min of coronary occlusion (n=7) or 48 min of coronary occlusion and 30 min of reperfusion (n=14) the heart was excised. In seven animals in the reperfusion protocol the area at risk was perfused for 5 min with an anoxic buffer, starting 5 min after coronary occlusion. Serial T2 weighted and density weighted images of the heart were obtained from apex to base, by using a 1.5 tesla magnetic resonance imager. Water content was measured in samples from control and at-risk myocardium and relaxation parameters were measured in corresponding areas of the magnetic resonance images. Results: Water content was 399(SEM 2) ml.100 g-1 dry tissue in control myocardium, 427(8) in ischaemic myocardium, and 511(8) in reperfused myocardium (p
