Delayed Contrast Enhanced MRI of Meniscus
INTRODUCTION Osteoarthritis (OA) is considered as a multisystemic disease and its origin and progression are believed to be attributable to disease in one or more tissues in the joint such as articular cartilage, sub-chondral bone, synovium, capsule and meniscus (Radiology 2008. 249:591-600). Meniscus is a crucial load-attenuating fibrocartilage in the knee. The total concentration of GAG in th...
متن کاملIsolated primary cardiac sarcoidosis: MRI diagnosis and monitoring of treatment response with cardiac enzymes.
A 48-year-old woman without known cardiovascular disease presented with progressive dyspnea. The ECG showed first-degree heart block. Plasma Troponin I and T were persistently elevated. Chest x-ray was normal. Echocardiography demonstrated asymmetrical left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy with septal predominance and moderately impaired LV systolic function. Coronary angiography demonstrated angio...
متن کاملThe additional value of gadolinium-enhanced MRI to standard assessment for cardiac involvement in patients with pulmonary sarcoidosis.
AIM To determine whether gadolinium-enhanced cardiac MRI (CMR) was of additional diagnostic value to standard assessment in patients with sarcoidosis who underwent evaluation for cardiac involvement. METHODS We reviewed the findings in patients with pulmonary sarcoidosis who had been assessed with ECG, Doppler echocardiography, 201Tl scintigraphy, and CMR from 2002 to 2004. RESULTS Of the 5...
متن کامل[Usefulness of phase-sensitive inversion recovery in delayed enhanced cardiac MRI].
BACKGROUND Delayed-enhancement MRI is a technique that has significant clinical usefulness, particularly for myocardial viability determination in ischemic heart disease. Delayed enhanced images have been acquired by using the inversion recovery(IR)method. It is necessary for the IR method to select optimal inversion time(TI). Recently, the phase-sensitive inversion recovery(PSIR)method has bee...
متن کاملSupervised Learning Modelization and Segmentation of Cardiac Scar in Delayed Enhanced MRI
Delayed Enhancement Magnetic Resonance Imaging (DE-MRI) can be used to non-invasively differentiate viable from non-viable myocardium within the Left Ventricle (LV) in patients suffering from myocardial diseases. Automated segmentation of scarified tissue can be used to quantify accurately the percentage of myocardium affected. This paper presents a method for cardiac scar detection and segment...
