June 29, 2020 — A type of smart magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan used in people with heart disease could help assess whether children's cancers are especially aggressive and spot early signs that targeted treatments are working, a new study suggests. Researchers showed that the MRI imaging...
CoronaryDiseaseMagneticResonanceImagingStemCellTransplantationCardiovascular disease is the leading cause of mortality worldwide. Stem cell transplantation has become a new treatment option for cardiovascular disease because the stem cells are able to migrate to damaged cardiac tissue, repair the myocardial ...
In recent years, technical advances and improvements in cardiac computed tomography (CT) and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) have provoked increasing interest in the potential clinical role of these techniques in the non-invasive work-up of patients with suspected coronary artery disease (CAD...
Introduction:Coronary heart disease is the leading cause of death and disability in the US [1]. Cardiac MRI is a promising tool to detect and evaluate myocardial ischemic disease [2]. Various MRI techniques have been developed, including functional cine scan, first pass myocardial perfusion (F...
Coronary artery disease CT scans can be used to determine and score the amount of calcium found inside the heart vessels. This should then be followed up with another procedure calledCT angiography. However, there are certain factors that interfere with the machine’s ability to accurately visualis...
Recent guidelines also include indications for CMR in congenital heart disease, heart failure, and coronary artery disease (CAD).3 Free breathing exams 3D WholeHeart Pro1 The 3D WholeHeart Pro addresses complex cardiovascular MR imaging needs, offering high isotropic resolution and 3D tissue ...
Assessment of the clinical applicability of DS-MRI for the detection of myocardial ischemia and myocardial viability.Prospective.In the period from 1 November 1999 to 31 October 2000, patients with suspected coronary artery disease who could not be studied by means of conventional bicycle ergometry ...

heart disease, there have been relatively few reports of foetal cardiac abnormalities diagnosed using MRI. The visualization of the foetal heart using MRI is very complicated because of the small heart size, the high foetal heart rate, and the foetal body motion5. In this study, foetal body ...
the need for invasive radiographic procedures, biopsies, and exploratory surgery.MRI scanscan also save money while minimizing patient risk and discomfort. For example,MRIcan reduce the need for X-rayangiographyand myelography, and can eliminate unnecessary diagnostic procedures that miss occult disease....
