Prevalence and clinical relevance of extra-cardiac findings at cardiac magnetic resonance imaging
Methods N=854 patient studies (median age 58 ± 12 years, male 63%) were included and examined by 1.5 Tesla (T) MR to primarily analyze the cardiac anatomy and secondly the surrounding structures. Extra-cardiac findings were classified as significant (Group A) if they were recommended to additional diagnostics or therapeutical interventions and as non-significant if there was no influence on pat...
متن کاملCardiac and Hepatic T2*-Weighted Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Abstract Background Iron overload is the main transfusion related side effects in patients with transfusion dependent hemoglobinopathies. Severe iron deposition in tissues leads to organ dysfunction. Many organs can be affected such as heart, liver, and endocrine organs. Cardiac failure and liver fibrosis are the consequent of Iron overload in transfusion dependent hemoglobinopathy. Magne...
متن کاملDNA Damages on Blood Cells After Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Introduction: Along with the increased use of cardiac imaging at clinics there is increased attention to the potential risks related to the methods used like magnetic resonance (MR) and it cannot be ruled out that MR can alter DNA structure. The aim of this review is to assess the impact of routine cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) scanning on DNA damages in human T lymphocytes....
متن کاملTypical cardiac magnetic resonance imaging findings of cardiac amyloidosis.
We report the case of a 62-year-old man who presented with shortness of breath, lower extremity edema and clinical signs of congestive heart failure. Transthoracic echocardiography demonstrated concentric left ventricular hypertrophy with severe diastolic dysfunction and biatrial enlargement. After aggressive diuresis and clinical improvement, a cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) examinat...
متن کاملMagnetic resonance imaging findings in cardiac lipoma.
Cardiac lipomas are exceedingly rare benign tumors of the heart. They are usually asymptomatic. Occasionally, they are found on MRI as an incidental finding. We report a case of a 68-year-old woman who presented with shortness of breath. Transoesophageal echocardiography depicted a cardiac mass lesion. The diagnosis of an intracardiac lipoma was confirmed by characterization of this mass with M...
