A thousand words about the imaging in cardiac amyloidosis

Journal of Medical Science, 2019
Cardiac amyloidosis is an infiltrative disease which usually occurs under the form of restrictive cardiomyopathy. Advances in the treatment have changed the unfavorable outcomes of this disease. Thus, early diagnosis is essential.

Noninvasive cardiac flow assessment using high speed magnetic resonance fluid motion tracking. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2009
Cardiovascular diseases can be diagnosed by assessing abnormal flow behavior in the heart. We introduce, for the first time, a magnetic resonance imaging-based diagnostic that produces sectional flow maps of cardiac chambers, and presents cardiac ...

Cardiac magnetic resonance spectroscopy

Current Cardiology Reports, 2003
This review describes recent advances in cardiac magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS). MRS allows noninvasive characterization of the metabolic state of cardiac muscle, in both animal and human models. Recent experimental MRS studies have allowed new insights into the essential role of energetics in heart failure. Various new studies suggest a rapidly

Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Assessment of Myocarditis [PDF]

Circulation: Cardiovascular Imaging, 2013
Symptoms consistent with myocarditis are a frequent cause of medical visits, especially in young and middleaged patients. Moreover, myocarditis was found to be the most frequent disease in patients with acute coronary syndrome yet normal coronary arteries.

European Standard Clinical Practice Guideline and EXPeRT Recommendations for the Diagnosis and Management of Gastroenteropancreatic Neuroendocrine Neoplasms in Children and Adolescents

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pediatric gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP‐NENs) are extremely rare and clinically heterogeneous. Management has largely been extrapolated from adult practice. This European Standard Clinical Practice Guideline (ESCP), developed by the EXPeRT network in collaboration with adult NEN experts, provides (adult) evidence ...

Guidelines for Pediatric Radiotherapy Simulation: A Report From the Children's Oncology Group Radiation Oncology Discipline

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pediatric radiation therapy presents unique challenges compared to adult treatments, including those of immobilization, potential need for sedation, and the critical importance of accurate, reproducible positioning. Additionally, heightened attention to imaging doses is necessary to minimize long‐term toxicity in survivors.

The Relationship Between Physical Activity and Left Ventricular Remodeling in Childhood Cancer Survivors Treated With Anthracyclines: A Cross‐Sectional Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Anthracycline‐related cardiac remodeling precedes heart failure in childhood cancer survivors. The objectives of this study were to determine the relationships between patient‐specific factors, moderate‐to‐vigorous physical activity (MVPA), and cardiac remodeling.

Massive mitral annular calcification mimicking intracardiac mass: Multimodality approach to diagnosis

Radiology Case Reports, 2018
The correct differential diagnosis of cardiac masses can be challenging and often carries important clinical implications. We present the case of a 78-year-old man with a cardiac mass of unclear etiology diagnosed on echocardiography.

[18F]Fluorodeprenyl‐D2 PET as a Tool to Monitor Disease Activity in GAD65‐Ab Autoimmune Encephalitis

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate [18F]fluorodeprenyl‐D2 ([18F]F‐DED) positron‐emission tomography (PET) imaging as a biomarker of disease activity in autoimmune encephalitis (AIE) associated with glutamic acid decarboxylase 65 (GAD65) antibodies. Methods [18F]F‐DED PET was performed in 25 GAD65‐AIE patients and 8 controls using dynamic (0–60 min) and ...
