Value of Echocardiography and Cardiac Magnetic resonance in assessing left ventricular function in breast and gastric cancer patients after Anthracycline Chemotherapy

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2023
Background Echocardiography (ECHO) and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are used to observe changes in the left ventricular structure in patients with breast and gastric cancer after 6 cycles of chemotherapy.

Positive Remodeling – a Major Feature of Vulnerability in Patients with Non-Obstructive Coronary Artery Disease

Journal of Interdisciplinary Medicine, 2021
The most common cause of acute coronary syndrome is thrombosis of an atheromatous plaque. Positive remodeling is the compensatory dilatation of the plaque-containing section of the vessel wall.

A rare case of coronary artery fistula presented with acute myocardial infarction

Avicenna Journal of Medicine, 2015
Coronary artery fistulas (CAFs): Are anomalous connections of the coronary arteries (CA) with major vascular structures or heart chambers. Most of CAFs are incidental findings during invasive coronary angiography (ICA) or computed tomography angiography (

Cardiac hybrid imaging [PDF]

European Journal of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging, 2014
Hybrid cardiac single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT)/CT imaging allows combined assessment of anatomical and functional aspects of cardiac disease. In coronary artery disease (CAD), hybrid SPECT/CT imaging allows detection of coronary artery stenosis and myocardial perfusion abnormalities.
