Quantitative analysis of cardiac left ventricular variables obtained by MRI at 3 T : a pre- and post-contrast comparison [PDF]
Short-axis cine images are acquired during cardiac MRI in order to determine variables of cardiac left ventricular (LV) function such as ejection fraction (EF), end-diastolic volume (EDV), end-systolic volume (ESV), stroke volume (SV) and LV mass.

Fat volume measurements as a predictor of image noise in coronary computed tomography angiography
Introduction: Image noise can negatively affect the overall quality of coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA). Objectives: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationship between image noise and fat volumes in the chest wall.

Multimodality Imaging of Benign Primary Cardiac Tumor
Primary cardiac tumors (PCTs) are rare, with benign PCTs being relatively common in approximately 75% of all PCTs. Benign PCTs are usually asymptomatic, and they are found incidentally by imaging.

A control system approach to subject specific prospective respiratory motion correction in cardiac MRI [PDF]
Includes bibliographical references.Respiratory motion of the heart is a problem for high-resolution cardiac MRI. Diaphragmatic navigator gating with a 5mm acceptance window is most commonly used to address this but has an inherently low respiratory ...

Impact of tissue microstructure on a model of cardiac electromechanics based on MRI data [PDF]
Cardiac motion is a vital process as it sustains the pumping of blood in the body. For this reason motion abnormalities are often associated with severe cardiac pathologies.
