[Adenosine stress protocols for myocardial perfusion imaging].
BACKGROUND/AIM Treadmill test combined with myocardial perfusion scintigraphy (MPS) is a commonly used technique in the assessment of coronary artery disease. There are many patients, however, who may not be able to undergo treadmill test. Such patients would benefit from pharmacological stress procedures combined with MPS. The most commonly used pharmacological agents for cardiac stress are co...
متن کاملDynamic CT perfusion imaging of acute stroke.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Because cerebral perfusion imaging for acute stroke is unavailable in most hospitals, we investigated the feasibility of a method of perfusion scanning that can be performed rapidly during standard cranial CT. Our aim was to identify the scanning parameters best suited to indicate tissue at risk and to measure a perfusion limit to predict infarction. METHODS Seventy pat...

متن کاملEndovascular therapy for ischemic stroke with perfusion-imaging selection.
BACKGROUND Trials of endovascular therapy for ischemic stroke have produced variable results. We conducted this study to test whether more advanced imaging selection, recently developed devices, and earlier intervention improve outcomes. METHODS We randomly assigned patients with ischemic stroke who were receiving 0.9 mg of alteplase per kilogram of body weight less than 4.5 hours after the o...
متن کاملStroke imaging: diffusion, perfusion, but no more confusion!
A fter attending numerous sessions dedicated to stroke imaging at national conferences, one cannot help but leave confused with unanswered questions because the presentations consist of diametrically opposed positions regarding the imaging of patients with acute stroke. For example, some presenters advocate for the use of advanced imaging techniques, while others maintain that noncontrast CT al...
