The need for speed - adenosine stress MRI in less than 30 minutes
Background Strong evidence in favour of an ischaemia-guided approach to coronary revascularisation for PCI has led to a huge increase in demand for ischaemia imaging. In our General Hospital setting we have seen a 300% increase in demand for stress MRI over 3 years to more than 800 examinations per year. We therefore sought to optimise patient throughput by process mapping and by the introducti...
متن کاملTMS brain mapping in less than two minutes.
BACKGROUND Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) corticospinal excitability maps are a valuable tool to study plasticity in the corticospinal tract. Traditionally, data acquisition for a single map is time consuming, limiting the method's applicability when excitability changes quickly, such as during motor learning, and in clinical investigations where assessment time is a limiting factor. ...
متن کاملAssessment of coronary arteries with total study time of less than 30 minutes by using whole-heart coronary MR angiography.
This study had institutional review board approval, and all patients gave informed consent. The purpose of this study was to prospectively evaluate the use of whole-heart three-dimensional (3D) coronary magnetic resonance (MR) angiography in patients suspected of having coronary artery disease. Whole-heart coronary MR angiography was performed in 39 patients (30 men and nine women; mean age, 63...
متن کاملCool Pions Move at Less than the Speed of Light
In this proceeding we give a pedagogical explanation of recent work of ours. 1 In this section we show how the velocity of pions, or more generally Goldstone bosons, changes with temperature in a thermal distribution. This in itself is pretty trivial, and familiar from other contexts. For examples, the appropriate analogy to Goldstone bosons in a theory which is relativistically invariant at ze...
متن کاملThe Need for Speed
The in-bred laboratory mouse (hereafter referred to as simply mouse) has in the past decades emerged as the go-to animal model in the arena of cardiovascular research. The reasons are straightforward: the relative ease of genetic manipulation coupled with short gestation times, the much cheaper cost of maintaining large numbers, and a large number of similarities to human genomics, proteomics, ...
