Cardiac function by magnetic resonance imaging

International Journal of Cardiac Imaging, 1988
Gated magnetic resonance imaging of the heart displays cardiac structures with excellent resolution. This ability should be useful for assessment of cardiac physiology where acquisition of systolic and diastolic images is required. In this study, left ventricular ejection fraction was determined in 50 patients from oblique long axis views of the left ...

Magnetic resonance imaging of cardiac hemangiopericytoma

Heart and Vessels, 1995
We report a patient with hemangiopericytoma, a rare soft tissue sarcoma, involving the left ventricle. T1- and T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a high signal mass invading the left ventricular wall. A biopsied specimen obtained from the metastatic subcutaneous tumor in the right popliteal fossa showed pathologic findings consistent

Magnetic resonance imaging of cardiac sarcomas

Journal of Thoracic Imaging, 1989
Two patients with cardiac sarcomas were evaluated with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). In both cases, MRI provided more information regarding the extent of the tumor than computed tomography, two-dimensional echocardiography, or angiography.

Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging

2010
Cardiovascular morbidity and related mortality are a major public health concern, and indeed coronary artery disease (CAD) remains the leading cause of death in adults both in Europe and in the United States with over 13,000,000 Americans estimated to have chronic CAD (1).

Contrast-Enhanced Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Magnetic Resonance Imaging Clinics of North America, 2012
Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging has significantly evolved in the past decade and is well established in the evaluation of coronary artery disease (CAD). The evaluation of cardiac anatomy and contractility by high-resolution CMR can be improved by using intravenous administration of gadolinium-based contrast agents.

Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging

Abstract This chapter contains 19 questions on cardiac magnetic resonance imaging with detailed explanations. The material will greatly aid your revision for the European Exam in Core Cardiology, and is also a handy refresher for experienced cardiologists.

Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging in children

Pediatric Radiology, 2015
MRI is an important additional tool in the diagnostic work-up of children with congenital heart disease. This review aims to summarise the role MRI has in this patient population. Echocardiography remains the main diagnostic tool in congenital heart disease. In specific situations, MRI is used for anatomical imaging of congenital heart disease.

Magnetic resonance imaging of cardiac amyloidosis

QJM, 2015
A 65-year-old woman consulted our hospital after the detection of heart enlargement on chest radiography and high N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide levels on blood tests by her primary physician. Low voltage was noted on electrocardiography at a medical health check 3 months previously.

Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging: patient safety considerations

Physica Medica, 2005
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is widely used in medicine. In cardiology, it is used to assess congenital or acquired diseases of the heat: and large vessels. Unless proper precautions are taken, it is generally advisable to avoid using this technique in patients with implanted electronic stimulators, such as pacemakers and defibrillators, on account
