Background: Heart failure is a serious complication resulting from left ventricular remodeling (LVR), especially in patients experiencing acute anterior myocardial infarction (AAMI). It is crucial to explore the predictive parameters for LVR following primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) in patients with AAMI. Methods: A total of 128 AAMI patients who were reperfused successfully by PPCI were enrolled sequentially from June 2018 to December 2019. Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) was performed at the early stage (p p p p = 0.002). (4) Conclusions: Both the global and regional CMR parameters were valuable in predicting LVR in patients with AAMI following the PPCI. The local parameters of the infarct zones were superior to those of the global ones.
