Transcytolemmal Water-Exchange Slows in Infarcted Myocardium

We measured and compared the transcytolemmal cellular water exchange rates of fibrotic and viable myocardium in patients with chronic myocardial infarcts. Transcytolemmal water exchange rates differed between infarcted and viable myocardium. Viable myocardium can be assumed to be in fast exchange limit. Infarcted myocardium has significantly slower exchange which alters the linearity of contrast curve shapes.
