Molecular Cardiology Research Institute, Division of Cardiology, Tufts Medical Center, 800 Washington Street, Box #80, Boston, MA 02111 USA.

Unlabelled: The aim of this study was to assess myocardial blush (MB) using a novel software algorithm that quantifies time-density curves (TDC) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).

Methods: Thirty-two patients referred for elective PCI were enrolled. TDC curves were generated and mean maximal myocardial contrast density (Dmax) was calculated from 5 regions of interest in the PCI territory.
