Quantification of left ventricular internal flow from cardiac magnetic resonance images in patients with dyssynchronous heart failure.
PURPOSE To develop a method for quantifying left ventricular (LV) internal flow as a measure of dyssynchrony using standard cine cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) images. MATERIALS AND METHODS CMR images were obtained from 10 healthy controls and 10 patients with dyssynchronous heart failure (class III/IV, LV ejection fraction <35%, pattern seen in an electrocardiogram QRS duration > 150 msec)...
متن کاملVO2peak/THV-ratio differ between heart failure patients with preserved ejection fraction and healthy controls
Heart failure is a term for a group of complex symtoms characterized by reduced heart function. One of these syndromes, referred to as heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), has increased in prevalence compared to other types of heart failures during the recent years. A concern is the difficulty in diagnosing patients with HFpEF, since current tools are considered insufficient....
متن کاملMyocardial T1 and extracellular volume fraction measurement in asymptomatic patients with aortic stenosis: reproducibility and comparison with age-matched controls.
AIMS (i) To establish the test-retest reproducibility of myocardial T1 and extracellular volume (ECV) fraction measurement in asymptomatic patients with moderate-severe aortic stenosis (AS), (ii) to compare reproducibility using motion-corrected (MOCO) parametric T1 maps for analysis vs. full MOLLI series of images, and (iii) to compare T1 and ECV between patients and age-matched controls. ME...
متن کاملComparison of sleep in osteoarthritic patients and age and sex matched healthy controls.
A sleep laboratory comparison of the sleep of 14 osteoarthritic patients with that of 16 age and sex matched healthy controls was undertaken. After three nights of adaptation continuous recordings of electroencephalographic (EEG), electro-oculographic (EOG), and electromyographic (EMG) activity were obtained for the next two nights. A comparison of EEG sleep variables during this baseline perio...
متن کاملInternal Jugular Vein Blood Flow in Multiple Sclerosis Patients and Matched Controls
The aim of the study was to investigate the Internal Jugular Veins dynamics using contrast enhanced ultrasonography in Multiple Sclerosis patients, clinically isolated syndrome patients and healthy controls. Contrast enhanced ultrasonography imaging of the Internal Jugular Vein was performed in fifty-eight patients with Multiple Sclerosis, seven clinically isolated syndrome patients and in thir...
