Myocardial Tissue Characterization by Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging is a well-established noninvasive imaging modality in clinical cardiology. Its unsurpassed accuracy in defining cardiac morphology and function and its ability to provide tissue characterization make it well suited for the study of patients with cardiac diseases. Late gadolinium enhancement was a major advancement in the development of tissue characteriz...
متن کاملcharacterization of soft tissue tumors by diffusion-weighted imaging
conclusion our preliminary results have shown that although there is some overlap between benign and malignant tumors, adding dwi, mr imaging to routine soft tissue tumor protocols may improve diagnostic accuracy. results there was only one patient with a malignant cystic tumor and was not included in the statistical analysis. the median adc values of benign and malignant tumors were 2.31 ± 1.2...
متن کاملMyocardial extracellular volume imaging by CMR quantitatively characterizes myocardial infarction and subclinical myocardial fibrosis
Methods Patients (n=126) were imaged at 1.5T (Siemens) with a Modified Look-Locker Inversion-recovery (MOLLI) sequence before and approximately 15 minutes after a 0.15 mmol/kg bolus of Gd-DTPA. T1 and R1 pixel maps were generated. DeltaR1 maps (R1after R1before contrast) were divided by the DeltaR1 value of the LV blood pool and multiplied by [1hematocrit], yielding a quantitative pixel map of ...
متن کاملexercise stress echocardiography and tissue synchronization imaging of myocardial dyssynchrony
conclusions the tsi analysis in patients with cad may be considered an interesting parameter in addition to the conventional echocardiographic parameters during ese. background stress echocardiography represents one of the best possible imaging choice for the diagnosis and stratification of patients with coronary artery disease (cad). however, this imaging technique presents some limitations su...
متن کاملCharacterization of ventricular myocardial performance in the fetus by tissue Doppler imaging.
BACKGROUND Clinically useful indices of fetal cardiac function have not been fully delineated for tissue Doppler imaging (TDI). METHODS AND RESULTS In the present study, 56 pregnancies between the 17(th) and 38(th) weeks of gestation included 38 normal fetuses, 6 cases of hydrops fetalis (HF), and 12 of intrauterine growth retardation (IUGR). Peak velocity in early diastole (E) was measured b...
