largest subtype of ASD by size of defect is
Primum
78
Which ASD will close on its own
Secundums
79
why can ASD primums not be closed by device?
too close to the AV valve rtissue
80
Downs get which ASD
Ostium primum / endocardial cushion defect
81
When I say sinus venosus ASD
you say PAPVR
82
define PAPVR
one one of the four pulmonary veins into the right atrium.
83

100
in MI what does stunned myocardium mean?

chronic process from severe CAD. Chronic hypoperfusion. but takes up more tracer on PET

103
why is microsvascular obstruciton a poor prognostic indicator in MI
lack of funcitonal recovery
104
true ventricular aneurysm vs flase ventricular aneurysm
true - mouth wider than body. Myocardium intact. anterolateral wall. False - Mouth is nrrow. Myocardium not intact. Posterior-lateral wall. Higher risk of rupture
105
Viability post MI based on wal thickness
<25% - improve with PCI 25 - 50% may improve with PCI 5o% < unlikely to recover

110
post MI sequelae timeframes myocardial rupture
within 3 days
111

ischaemic dilated cardiomyopathy will show enhancement where
subendocardial enhancement
113
idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy will show what enhacnement
linear mid-myocardial enhacnement
114
commonest cause of restritice cardiomyopathy
amyloid
115
difficult to supress the myocardium think
amyloid needs a longer T1.
116
Loeffler syndrome is
Eosinophilic cardiomyopathy
117
what is eosinophilic cardiomyopathy
bilateral ventricular thrombus is the classic phrase / buzzword. long t1 to show the thormbus left ventricular apical obliteration by laminar thrombosis
