Abstract
Methods and systems are provided for diagnosis and/or treatment of microvascular dysfunction, such as microvascular obstruction (MVO), in which the effects of collateral flow around a treatment site are addressed by injecting volumetric flows into a vessel using an infusion system to prevent or render negligible the collateral flow. Arterial pressures and fluidic flow rates sufficient to negate the collateral flow may be used to indicate the presence and/or severity of MVO for diagnostic and/or therapeutic purposes.
