Anomalous coronary arteries: anatomic and functional assessment by coronary and perfusion cardiovascular magnetic resonance in three sisters.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Combined coronary and perfusion cardiovascular magnetic resonance was performed in three sisters with angina and suspected anomalous coronary arteries. Two sisters had anomalous coronary arteries passing between the aorta and right ventricular outflow tract and had abnormal myocardial perfusion. One sister had normal anatomy and perfusion. The combined approach identified the anatomy and functional significance of suspected anomalous coronary arteries.

Background Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) has expanded its role in the diagnosis and management of congenital heart disease and acquired heart disease in children. However, there are limited studies evaluating the role of cardiac magnetic resonance in delineating the anatomy of coronary arteries along with assessment of first pass myocardial perfusion in children. The purpose of this s...

BACKGROUND In adults with prior arterial switch operation (ASO) for d-transposition of the great arteries, the need for routine coronary artery assessment and evaluation for silent myocardial ischemia is not well defined. In this observational study we aimed to determine the value of a comprehensive cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) protocol for the detection of coronary problems in adult...

Significant coronary st...
متن کاملClinical role of coronary magnetic resonance angiography in the diagnosis of anomalous coronary arteries.
Though rare, anomalous coronary artery disease is a well-known cause of myocardial ischemia and sudden death among children and young adults. The projectional nature of conventional x-ray angiography often leads to difficulty in the definition of anomalous vessels. Studies have now documented the high accuracy of coronary magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) for the noninvasive detection and de...
