چکیده

Background Adenosine stress magnetic resonance is highly accurate for the detection of myocardial perfusion abnormalities. Visual assessment of inducible wall motion abnormalities (IWMA) during adenosine has low sensitivity but high specificity since only high-grade perfusion defects are associated with detectable IWMAs. The novel technique Feature Tracking (FT) measures myocardial strain and gives detailed information about regional myocardial deformation. The aim of this study was to investigate FT for the detection of myocardial ischemia during adenosine stress.

Effects of hyperaemia on left ventricular longitudinal strain in patients with suspected coronary artery disease

AIMS Myocardial perfusion imaging during hyperaemic stress is commonly used to detect coronary artery disease. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between left ventricular global longitudinal strain (GLS), strain rate (GLSR), myocardial early (E') and late diastolic velocities (A') with adenosine stress first-pass perfusion cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging. ...

Value of strain analysis with feature tracking in dobutamine stress cardiac magnetic resonance imaging for detecting coronary artery disease

Background Dobutamine stress magnetic resonance (DSMR) has been established for the detection of coronary artery disease (CAD) due to its high diagnostic accuracy and prognostic value. The novel technique feature tracking (FT) analyses regional myocardial strain and thereby offers detailed information about myocardial deformation. The purpose of this study was to examine how FT based circumfere...

Perfusion imaging with vasodilator stress echocardiography: a physiologically sound approach to coronary disease?

Cardiac stress testing with noninvasive imaging is increasingly used not only to detect the presence of coronary artery disease (CAD), but also to help to select appropriate therapy according to the extent and severity of disease. To that end, there have been continuous efforts to improve the performance of all forms of stress testing. For example, recent advances in stress radionuclide imaging...

Detection of left ventricular regional dysfunction and myocardial abnormalities using complementary cardiac magnetic resonance imaging in patients with systemic sclerosis without cardiac symptoms

Methods Consecutive patients with SSc without cardiac symptoms and healthy controls underwent CMR. Peak systolic regional circumferential and radial strain (Ecc and Err, %) were calculated using a feature tracking analysis on mid-left ventricular slices obtained with cine MRI in six segments. Furthermore, perfusion defect (PD) under pharmacological stress and late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) w...

The value of myocardial perfusion imaging with Tc-99m MIBI for the prediction of perfusion improvement after percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty

  Introduction: Percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) is an effective method for revascularizing of stenotic coronary vessels. Lack of response to this treatment, either in symptomatic or asymptomatic patients, is usually due to incomplete revascularization, restenosis, and/or irreversibility of myocardial perfusion. Introduction of a noninvasive metho...
