Ultrasonic tissue characterization of infarcted myocardium by scanning acoustic microscopy.
The purpose of this study was to ultrasonically characterize infarcted human myocardial tissue at the microscopic level by scanning acoustic microscopy. Infarcted myocardial specimens from ten cases with acute myocardial infarction were studied. Specimens were formalin fixed, paraffin embedded and sectioned to 10-micron thickness. A specially developed scanning acoustic microscope system, opera...
متن کاملTissue injury characterization by pre-contrast T1 mapping post myocardial infarction
Background Myocardial scar and edema can be assessed by late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) and T2W cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) respectively, but each has important limitations. T1-mapping has emerged as an alternative method to characterize acute ischemic injury and contemporary mapping sequences make this clinically feasible. We assessed the T1 relaxation time in myocardial segments exhibi...
متن کاملMyogenic cells applications in regeneration of post-infarction cardiac tissue.
Skeletal myoblasts (SMs) transplantations are the focus of intense investigation due to their therapeutic potential for cardiac repair. Heart diseases are the main problem in humans worldwide, resulting very often in death of patients. Consequently, investigators sought methods which could improve myocardial function in patients with cardiac failure. Stem cells therapy belongs to one of the hig...
متن کاملNoninvasive Quantitation of Myocardial Infarction
We sought to quantitate infarct size using radioactive imaging techniques. Infarcts were created in closed chest dogs. Using a scintillation camera interfaced to a computer, infarct images were made in the anterior, left lateral, LAO, and RAO projections, 48 hours after infarction and 75 to 90 min following the intravenous injection of 15 mCi of Technetium 99m pyrophosphate (Tc-PYP). Images wer...
متن کاملDetection of stunned myocardium in post-reperfusion cases of acute myocardial infarction.
OBJECTIVE This study was designed to evaluate the correlation between improvements in serial images obtained by SPECT imaging with Tc-99m MIBI (MIBI) and I-123 BMIPP (BMIPP) and the recovery of cardiac function in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients after reperfusion therapy. METHODS Twenty five patients who were admitted to the emergency room within 24 hours after the onset of the fir...
