Homocysteine and pulsatility index of cerebral arteries.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE A pulsatility index (PI) represents vascular resistance distal to an examined artery. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate an association between plasma total homocysteine (tHcy) and PIs of the cerebral arteries in patients with ischemic stroke. METHODS Consecutive patients with ischemic stroke referred to a neurovascular ultrasound laboratory were evaluated...
متن کاملPulmonary artery pulsatility and effect on vessel diameter assessment in magnetic resonance imaging.
BACKGROUND Information about thoracic vascular sizes can crucially affect clinical decision-making in cardiovascular disease. A variety of imaging techniques such as catheter angiography, contrast enhanced computed tomography (CT) and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) are routinely used to measure vascular diameters. Traditionally, CMR black blood sequences were the main anatomical tool ...
متن کاملDNA Damages on Blood Cells After Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Introduction: Along with the increased use of cardiac imaging at clinics there is increased attention to the potential risks related to the methods used like magnetic resonance (MR) and it cannot be ruled out that MR can alter DNA structure. The aim of this review is to assess the impact of routine cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) scanning on DNA damages in human T lymphocytes....
متن کاملSegmentation of Magnetic Resonance Brain Imaging Based on Graph Theory
Introduction: Segmentation of brain images especially from magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is an essential requirement in medical imaging since the tissues, edges, and boundaries between them are ambiguous and difficult to detect, due to the proximity of the brightness levels of the images. Material and Methods: In this paper, the graph-base...
