Chest PainLate Gadolinium EnhancementPericardial EffusionPericardial DiseaseAcute PericarditisBackground Evaluation of chest pain(CP) patients with cardiac MRI (CMR) provides a comprehensive exam including myocardial structure, function, perfusion and viability in 30-35 min without radiation or iodinated ...
Methods One hundred and six patients diagnosed with AMI and treated with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) underwent acute cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) and 45 of whom had a subsequent CMR scan following rec...
Cardiac MRI: T2-mapping versus T2-weighted dark-blood TSE imaging for myocardial edema visualization in acute myocardial infarction. Fortschr Rontgenstr. 2014;186:166-72.Naβenstein K,Nensa F,Schlosser T,et al.Cardiac MRI:T2 mapping versus T2 weighted dark blood TSE ...
The images obtained included short-axis stacks from base to apex of the left ventricle and long-axis (3-, 4-, and 2-chamber views) balanced steady-state free precession (b-SSFP) cine sequences. Short-axis T2-weighted short-time inversion recovery (T2-STIR) and 2D phase-sensitive ...
However, in a recent publication, Lama et al found no significant differences in splenic T1 and T2 times in patients with cardiac AL amyloidosis versus normal patients with a modified Look-Locker inversion recovery used in cardiac MRI [35]. Furthermore, no patient in our cohort had known ...
Myocardial oedema imaging with T2-weighted cardiac magnetic resonance CMR is validated for imaging the AAR and T2 'mapping' is a new method for AAR imaging with clinical and research potential. We aimed to develop an automated post-processing method that would enable straightforward volumetric ...
Assessment of severe reperfusion injury with T2* cardiac MRI in patients with acute myocardial infarction. Heart.2010;96:1885-1891.O'Regan DP, Ariff B, Neuwirth C, Tan Y, Durighel G, Cook SA. Assessment of severe reperfusion injury with T2* cardi- ac MRI in patients with acute myocardial...
Methods 16 patients (mean age 63 ± 9 years, 6 female) suspected of having coronary artery disease and being scheduled for invasive coronary angiography underwent cardiac MR (CMR) imaging at 3.0 T (Philips Achieva, Best, NL). T2* measurements were performed in 3 short axis slices of the ...
