Myocardial viability assessment by contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging.
Recent progress in the diagnosis and treatment of coronary artery disease has intensified the need to differentiate viable from nonviable myocardium with accuracy and high spatial resolution. Contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) had been investigated as a potential technique to assess myocardial viability for several years (1), before the development of gradient echo-imaging techn...
متن کاملcontrast enhanced magnetic resonance imaging in sacroiliitis
conclusion fs t2 w and ce fs t1 w sequences of axial planes were the most useful sequences in determination of active sacroiliitis. therefore, in patients with renal failure or allergy to contrast media, fs t2 wi can be obtained to detect active sacroiliitis. objectives the aim of this retrospective study was to assess the value of different magnetic resonance imaging (mri) sequences in evaluat...
متن کاملMagnetic resonance imaging in the detection of myocardial viability: the role of delayed contrast hyperenhancement.
has emerged as a new noninvasive modality in the investigation of cardiovascular disease during the last decade. Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) has well-established imaging capabilities for the assessment of global and regional left ventricular (LV) function and mass. Its potential for the assessment of ischaemic heart disease is currently being explored in many centres. The main focus...
متن کاملImportance of perfusion in myocardial viability studies using delayed contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging.
PURPOSE To investigate whether an extracellular gadolinium-(Gd)-based contrast agent (CA) enters nonperfused myocardium during acute coronary occlusion, and whether nonperfused myocardium presents as hyperintense in delayed contrast-enhanced (DE) MR images in the absence of CA in that region. MATERIALS AND METHODS The left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) was occluded for 200 minutes...
