Background - An ultrafast, delayed contrast-enhancement cardiovascular magnetic resonance technique that can acquire subsecond, "snapshot" images during free breathing ( subsecond) is becoming widely available. This technique provides myocardial infarction ( MI) imaging with complete left ventricular coverage in < 30 seconds. However, the accuracy of this technique is unknown.Methods and Results - We prospectively compared subsecond imaging with routine breath-hold delayed contrast-enhancement cardiovascular magnetic resonance ( standard) in consecutive patients. Two cohorts with unambiguous standards of truth were prespecified: ( 1) patients with documented prior MI ( n = 135) and ( 2) patients without MI and with low likelihood of coronary disease ( lowest Framingham risk category; n = 103). Scans were scored masked to identity and clinical information. Sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of subsecond imaging for MI diagnosis were 87%, 96%, and 91%, respectively. Compared with the standard technique ( 98%, 100%, 99%), the subsecond technique had modestly reduced sensitivity ( P = 0.0001), but specificity was excellent. Missed infarcts were generally small or subendocardial ( 87%). Overall, regional transmural extent of infarction scores were highly concordant ( 2083/2294; 91%); however, 51 of 337 regions ( 15%) considered predominantly infarcted ( > 50% transmural extent of infarction) by the standard technique were considered viable (
