Clinically significant abnormal findings on the "nondiagnostic" CT portion of low-amperage-CT attenuation-corrected myocardial perfusion SPECT/CT studies.
UNLABELLED Attenuation correction is recommended to optimize the performance of cardiac SPECT. The 2.5-mA CT commonly used for this purpose in myocardial perfusion SPECT is generally considered "nondiagnostic" in quality. In other areas of cardiac and hybrid imaging, diagnostically relevant abnormal findings on higher-quality CT studies have been described. The purpose of this study was to esta...
متن کاملClinically Significant Cardiac Arrhythmia in Patients with Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage
OBJECTIVE Many previous studies have shown that electrocardiographic (ECG) changes occur patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). This study was designed to identify the frequency, influencing factors, and outcome of clinically significant cardiac arrhythmias after SAH. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed clinical data of 122 patients including ECG finding, age, sex, the Hunt-Hess grade, ...
متن کاملUpdate on myocardial bridging.
Muscle overlying the intramyocardial segment of an epicardial coronary artery, first mentioned by Reyman1 in 1737, is termed a myocardial bridge, and the artery coursing within the myocardium is called a tunneled artery (Figure 1). It is characterized by systolic compression of the tunneled segment, which remains clinically silent in the vast majority of cases. An in-depth analysis of autopsy s...
متن کاملClinically significant novel biomarkers for prediction of first ever myocardial infarction: the Tromsø Study.
BACKGROUND Identification of individuals with high risk for first-ever myocardial infarction (MI) can be improved. The objectives of the study were to survey multiple protein biomarkers for association with the 10-year risk of incident MI and identify a clinically significant risk model that adds information to current common risk models. METHODS AND RESULTS We used an immunoassay platform th...
متن کاملPrevalence of Clinically Significant Extraosseous Findings on Unenhanced CT Portions of 18F-Fluoride PET/CT Bone Scans
OBJECTIVE Due to the frequently interrupted supply of (99m)Tc-methylene diphosphonate, the use of ¹⁸F-fluoride positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) has become more popular. The study aims to determine the percentage of extraosseous findings from the unenhanced CT portion of F ¹⁸F-fluoride PET/CT scans. MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively collected ¹⁸F-fluoride PET/...
