The aim of this study was to evaluate the evolution in Q-wave expression during the first 5 years after a primary, successfully reperfused ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (MI), using cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) for infarct location, and to depict changes in infarct size and left ventricular remodeling over time.
