Na Chemical Shift Imaging of myocardial edema
Introduction – Distinction between viable and non-viable myocardium is essential for diagnosis and treatment of patients with coronary artery disease. Delayed contrast-enhanced (DCE) MRI has become the gold standard to determine the size of chronic infarcts. However, although T2-weigthed MRI shows great promise to delineate the area at risk after the event related to the formation of edema, the...
متن کاملMagnetic Resonance Im Spectral resolution enhancement by chemical shift imaging
Three-dimensional chemical shift imaging (3D CSI) with appropriate data postprocessing can be used as a tool to improve spectral resolution in samples where large susceptibility differences and limited shim capabilities prevent good sample shimming. Data postprocessing is reduced to the realignment of individual 3D voxel spectra. As a result, the line broadening due to the field inhomogeneity o...
متن کاملImaging myocardial edema
Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging offers a powerful noninvasive technique for assessing the effects of ischemia–reperfusion injury in the context of acute coronary syndrome (ACS). T2-weighted CMR sequences performed after coronary occlusion accurately identify regions of myocardial edema downstream of the obstructed vessel that enables retrospective determination of the area at risk. Com...
متن کاملEchoplanar chemical shift imaging.
A novel method of chemical shift imaging utilizing echoplanar imaging (EPI) has been developed for the purpose of improving the spatial resolution of metabolite images for the specific goal of high spatial resolution mapping of neuronal content. An EPI sequence was modified to allow temporal offsets of the 180 degree refocusing pulse that encode the chemical shift information into the phase of ...
متن کاملGd-DTPA enhancement in MR imaging of central pontine myelinolysis.
A 37-year-old man with a history of alcohol abuse was admitted for evaluation of agitation , incoordination , and confusion . Initial screening laboratory examination revealed a serum sodium of 96 mEqfl , blood urea nitrogen of 4 mgjdl , and creatinine of 0.7 mgjdl. The patient 's severe hyponatremia was corrected with IV fluids including 5% dextrose in normal saline. Serum sodium levels were n...
