| Abstract |
Myocardial contrast echocardiography (MCE) enables direct assessment of the degree and adequacy of microvascular perfusion as well as the presence of wall motion abnormalities. MCE has the following benefits in patients with acute myocardial infarction (MI): 1) rapid and definite diagnosis of acute MI; 2) identification of patients who may benefit from prompt reperfusion therapy; 3) assessment of the efficacy of mechanical or pharmacologic intervention for an open infarct-related artery; 4) estimation of MI size early after reperfusion and residual myocardial viability; 5) identification of being at high risk for post-MI complications and left ventricular remodeling; and 6) assessment of myocardial viability and ischemia prior to hospital discharge. Therefore, MCE is an ideal tool for correct triaging of patients to revascularization and has both prognostic and therapeutic implications in patients with acute MI. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 23 March 2012.
All research outputs
#20,156,138
of 22,663,969 outputs
Outputs from Current Cardiology Reports
#901
of 995 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#145,365
of 160,528 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Current Cardiology Reports
#7
of 7 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,663,969 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 995 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 6.3. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 160,528 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 7 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one.
