Multi-modality imaging of pheochromocytoma

Pheochromocytoma, a rare neuroendocrine adrenal tumor, is often diagnosed by a combination of clinical, laboratory, and radiographic features. While the imaging features of this entity are variable, the use of complementary modalities often helps to target the diagnosis and assess the extent of the disease. We present a multi-modality evaluation of a pheochromocytoma, with CT, MR, MIBG, and pat...

Multi-modality compressed breast imaging

ABSTRACT Measurement of breast tissue response to external stimulation has the potential to unveil additional dynamic biomarkers of disease states. Recently tumor contrast generated by breathing-gas induced vascular changes has been demonstrated using both BOLD imaging [1] and MRIguided near infrared diffuse optical tomography [2]. At the same time, in the biomedical optics community, temporall...

The multi-modality cardiac imaging approach to the Athlete's heart: an expert consensus of the European Association of Cardiovascular Imaging.

The term 'athlete's heart' refers to a clinical picture characterized by a slow heart rate and enlargement of the heart. A multi-modality imaging approach to the athlete's heart aims to differentiate physiological changes due to intensive training in the athlete's heart from serious cardiac diseases with similar morphological features. Imaging assessment of the athlete's heart should begin with...
