Cardiac imaging techniques for physicians: late enhancement.
Late enhancement imaging is used to diagnose and characterize a wide range of ischemic and nonischemic cardiomyopathies, and its use has become ubiquitous in the cardiac MR exam. As the use of late enhancement imaging has matured and the span of applications has widened, the demands on image quality have grown. The characterization of subendocardial MI now includes the accurate quantification o...
متن کاملDark blood late enhancement imaging
BACKGROUND Bright blood late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) imaging typically achieves excellent contrast between infarcted and normal myocardium. However, the contrast between the myocardial infarction (MI) and the blood pool is frequently suboptimal. A large fraction of infarctions caused by coronary artery disease are sub-endocardial and thus adjacent to the blood pool. It is not infrequent th...
متن کاملJoint Estimation of Cardiac Motion and T_1^* Maps for Magnetic Resonance Late Gadolinium Enhancement Imaging
In the diagnosis of myocardial infarction, magnetic resonance imaging can provide information about myocardial contractility and tissue characterization, including viability. In current clinical practice, separate scans are required for each aspect. A recently proposed method showed how the same information can be extracted from a single, short scan of 4 s, but made strong assumptions about the...

متن کاملRelationship between Late Gadolinium Enhancement Extent in Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Severity of Coronary Artery Disease in Old Myocardial Infarction
Purpose: To assess the relationship between the severity of coronary arteries involvement and the extent and pattern of myocardial scars in Cardiac Magnetic Resonance of patients with history of remote myocardial infarction. Materials and Methods: The Cardiac Magnetic Resonance images of sixty patients with history of remote ST segment or non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction were ...
