Optimized Prognosis Assessment in ST-Segment-Elevation Myocardial Infarction Using a Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging Risk Score [Myocardial Infarction]

Conclusions— Our approach integrates the prognostic information of CMR imaging into a simple risk score that showed incremental prognostic value over clinical risk factors in ST-segment–elevation myocardial infarction patients.
