Myocardial infarction with non-obstructive coronary arteries (MINOCA) is a working diagnosis and requires identification of the underlying causes to optimize treatment, improve prognosis, and prevent the recurrence of myocardial infarction.

Stable coronary syndromes: pathophysiology, diagnostic advances and therapeutic need [PDF]
The diagnostic management of patients with angina pectoris typically centres on the detection of obstructive epicardial CAD, which aligns with evidence-based treatment options that include medical therapy and myocardial revascularisation.

Application norms and research progress of cardiac magnetic resonance imaging in the management of MINOCA patients [PDF]
Myocardial infarction without obstructive coronary artery (MINOCA) refers to myocardial infarction (MI) that occurs when the lumen area of coronary artery stenosis is ≤50%, accounting for 1% to 14% of the total MI.

The Promise of Imaging in MINOCA
![Figure][1] Advances in technology have continuously helped us clarify etiology and mechanisms of disease in patients originally classified as “idiopathic.” Imaging, particularly cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR), has been especially effective in identifying unique diagnostic ...

Prospective comparison of novel dark blood late gadolinium enhancement with conventional bright blood imaging for the detection of scar [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Conventional bright blood late gadolinium enhancement (bright blood LGE) imaging is a routine cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) technique offering excellent contrast between areas of LGE and normal myocardium.

MINOCA biomarkers: Non-atherosclerotic aspects
Myocardial infarction in the absence of obstructive coronary artery disease (MINOCA) is an important subtype of myocardial infarction. Although comprising less than 50% stenosis in the main epicardial coronary arteries, it constitutes a severe health risk. A variety of approaches have been recommended, but definitive diagnosis remains elusive.
