Abstract
Cardiomyocyte injury accompanies elective coronary angiography in 1 of 8 patients. Sex, age, contrast agent volume, and ventricular disease, rather than the extent of coronary artery disease, independently predict cardiomyocyte injury. Further research aiming to reduce the incidence of cardiomyocyte injury seems warranted.
