The goal of this study is to use MCE (myocardial contrast/perfusion echocardiography) to
study and compare short/long term change of myocardial perfusion abnormality and cardiac
outcome in diabetic patients after nonfatal MI (heart attack), who are treated with
different glucose control agents.


Inclusion Criteria:

- Diabetic and nondiabetic patients will be initially recruited and studied after acute
nonfatal MI and revascularization with either PCI or CABG

Exclusion Criteria:

- Patients are excluded if they are older than 70 year old, require mechanical
ventilation, are receiving intravenous pressors or hemodynamic support, or if the
motion of segments associated with infarct-related artery can not be accurately
determined.
