Inclusion criteria

1. Patient is ≥ 30 years old 2. Acute anterior wall myocardial infarction showing akinetic or dyskinetic apical wall motion abnormalities on an initial transthoracic echocardiogram 3. Left ventricular ejection fraction less than 40%

Exclusion criteria

1. Prior history of myocardial infarction 2. Chronic medication with Coumadin 3. Contraindication of contrast echocardiography 4. Significant atrial or ventricular arrhythmia 5. Valvular heart disease more than moderate degree 6. Decompensated heart failure 7. Very poor echo window, which cannot evaluate the presence of apical thrombus
