Identifying MI after PCI; Myocardial Fibrosis & Severe Aortic Valve Stenosis; Anticoagulation & Cancer Diagnoses
In this week’s View, Dr. Eagle looks at the optimal threshold for identifying a myocardial infarction (MI) after PCI. He then discusses myocardial fibrosis and its prognostic features in patients undergoing treatment for severe aortic valve stenosis. Finally, Dr. Eagle explores the relationship between bleeding after initiation of anticoagulation and cancer diagnoses.
