Regional longitudinal bi-ventricular function in pulmonary hypertension: single heart-beat assessment of strain by fast-senc imaging
Purpose Right ventricular (RV) function is the most important determinant of survival in patients with pulmonary hypertension (PH), thus monitoring of RV function is critical. However, RV regional function assessment is challenging using current MR tagging techniques. Thus, the purpose was to evaluate regional longitudinal ventricular deformation (ELL) acquired by free breathing single heart-be...
متن کاملComparison of different data acquisition strategies in myocardial strain assessment using strain-encoded (SENC) MRI
Introduction: Strain-encoding (SENC) MRI was recently introduced for measuring myocardial through-plane strain with high resolution and simple post-processing (1). Figure 1 shows the SENC pulse sequence. In a typical sequence, k-space data is acquired line by line in a rectilinear fashion, which results in long scan time and renders the technique impractical in many applications. Nevertheless, ...
متن کاملUsing functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to explore brain function: cortical representations of language critical areas
Pre-operative determination of the dominant hemisphere for speech and speech associated sensory and motor regions has been of great interest for the neurological surgeons. This dilemma has been of at most importance, but difficult to achieve, requiring either invasive (Wada test) or non-invasive methods (Brain Mapping). In the present study we have employed functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging...

متن کاملDetecting Real-Time Regional Myocardium Strain Changes Using Fast Strain-Encoded (FSENC) MRI
Introduction: Dynamic changes in cardiac structure and function are usually examined by real-time imaging techniques such as angiography or echocardiography. Recently, MRI has proven many advantages compared with these established cardiac imaging modalities. Many techniques have been proposed for real-time interactive cardiac MR imaging [1]. However, most of these techniques are limited to only...
