Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) before invasive coronary angiogram (ICA) in stable patients with suspected non–ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) has the potential to change management in 50%.

Is it time to consider a strategy of non-invasive imaging before proceeding to ICA in NSTEMI? Learn more in : https://bit.ly/3W6yPFL
