The aim of this study is to examine in-depth cardiac function and morphology after short-term coronary occlusion by balloon inflation in patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD) who undergo percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
Primary objectives: 1. To determine the time-course for the resolution of regional myocardial function after short-term coronary artery occlusion in patients with stable CAD who undergo PCI. Secondary objectives: 2. To confirm by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging that no myocardial injury occurs after short-term coronary occlusion in patients who undergo PCI due to stable CAD. 3. To establish a clinical model for studying myocardial stunning.
