Cardiovascular magnetic resonance assessment in previously repaired ALCAPA
Methods 6 patients with repaired ALCAPA (2 Tackeuchi, 4 direct re-implantation) underwent CMR to assess clinical suspicion of myocardial ischemia short axis and long axis cine images (assess ventricular function), late-gadolinium enhancement (detect myocardial fibrosis), adenosine stress perfusion scan (detection of reversible ischaemia) and 3D whole-heart imaging (visualization of proximal cor...
متن کاملCardiovascular magnetic resonance findings in repaired anomalous left coronary artery to pulmonary artery connection (ALCAPA)
BACKGROUND Anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery (ALCAPA) is a rare coronary artery anomaly. This study shows the role of cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) in assessing young patients following surgical repair of ALCAPA. METHODS 6 patients, aged 9-21 years, with repaired ALCAPA (2 Tackeuchi method, 4 direct re-implantation) underwent CMR because of clini...
متن کاملAssessment of right ventricular function by treadmill exercise stress cardiovascular magnetic resonance in patients with repaired tetralogy of Fallot
Background Cardiac MR (CMR) is considered the gold standard to assess right ventricular (RV) function in different scenarios, including cases of congenital heart disease. Moreover, an MR-compatible treadmill coupled with Real Time (RT) CMR has been developed for stress testing, and may be an optimal choice in this setting. The aims of this study were to determine the feasibility and accuracy of...
متن کاملCardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging Toward Clinical Risk Assessment in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy With Gadolinium Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance
OBJECTIVES We sought to assess whether hyperenhancement by gadolinium cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) occurs in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and correlates with the risk of heart failure and sudden death. BACKGROUND The myocardial interstitium is abnormal in HCM at post-mortem. Focally increased interstitial myocardial space appears as hyperenhancement with gadolinium CMR. METHODS ...
