Quantitative Assessment of Myocardial Perfusion MRI
Myocardial perfusion MRI is acquired with a T1-weighted dynamic MRI sequence. Fully quantitative analysis of myocardial perfusion MRI allows the absolute quantification of myocardial blood flow (MBF) through the use of complex mathematical modeling. There are essentially two main methods for quantification of absolute MBF: the linear time-invariant model and the compartment model. Maximized con...
متن کاملAutomatic Assessment of Cardiac Perfusion MRI
In this paper, a method based on Active Appearance Models (AAM) is applied for automatic registration of myocardial perfusion MRI. A semi-quantitative perfusion assessment of the registered image sequences is presented. This includes the formation of perfusion maps for three parameters; maximum up-slope, peak and time-to-peak.
متن کاملMyocardial perfusion SPECT: Perfusion quantification
Different software tools for quantification of myocardial perfusion SPECT (MPS) studies are routinely used. Several perfusion parameters can be computed automatically. Interpretation of the MPS should start with visual inspection of the rotating planar images, visual analysis of reconstructed SPECT slices and then quantitative analysis to confirm the visual impression. Quantification should be...
متن کاملThe role of myocardial perfusion SPECT in short-term cardiac prognosis of end-stage renal disease
Introduction: One of the most important causes of death in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and even after kidney transplantation is cardiovascular diseases. Thus, cardiac evaluation is of utmost importance in the management of these patients especially during preoperative work up before renal transplantation. The aim of present study is to evaluate the role of myoc...
متن کاملNicorandil effect on myocardial perfusion in patients with slow coronary flow phenomenon assessment by gated myocardial perfusion SPECT
Introduction:Patients with the coronary slow flow phenomenon (SCF) frequently experience angina episodes. The purpose of this study was to determine efficacy of nicorandil in myocardial perfusion in patients with SCF. Methods: Twenty patients (50.85 ± 12.96 y) with SCF were studied. We evaluate coronary slow flow according to protracted thrombolysis in m...
