Role of MRI in evaluation and characterization of neoplastic and nonneoplastic cardiac masses

Journal of Medicine in Scientific Research, 2022
Background The overall frequency of cardiac tumors is quite low, with an estimated cumulative prevalence of 0.002–0.3% at autopsy, however, they represent an important group of cardiovascular abnormalities as the early and accurate diagnosis maybe ...

Cardiovascular magnetic resonance-guided right heart catheterization in a conventional CMR environment – predictors of procedure success and duration in pulmonary artery hypertension

Journal of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance, 2019
Background Cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) is valuable for the investigation and management of pulmonary artery hypertension (PAH), but the direct measurement of pulmonary hemodynamics by right heart catheterization is still necessary ...

Noninvasive in vivo tracking of mesenchymal stem cells and evaluation of cell therapeutic effects in a murine model using a clinical 3.0 T MRI [PDF]

, 2013
Cardiac cell therapy with mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) represents a promising treatment approach for endstage heart failure. However, little is known about the underlying mechanisms and the fate of the transplanted cells. The objective of the presented

Cardiac MRI for Myocardial Ischemia [PDF]

Methodist DeBakey Cardiovascular Journal, 2013
Proper assessment of the physiologic impact of coronary artery stenosis on the LV myocardium can affect patient prognosis and treatment decisions. Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) assesses myocardial perfusion by imaging the myocardium during a first-pass transit of an intravenous gadolinium bolus, with spatial and temporal resolution ...

The relationship of myocardial and liver T2* values with cardiac function and laboratory findings in transfusion-dependent thalassemia major patients: A retrospective cardiac MRI study [PDF]

Journal of Cardiovascular and Thoracic Research, 2023
Introduction: Cardiac complications are the leading cause of death in thalassemia patients. It is assumed that progressive iron accumulation results in myocyte damage. Myocardial T2* measurement by cardiac MRI quantifies iron overload.

Dobutamine stress MRI in pulmonary hypertension: relationships between stress pulmonary artery relative area change, RV performance, and 10-year survival [PDF]

, 2017
In pulmonary hypertension (PH), right ventricular (RV) performance determines survival. Pulmonary artery (PA) stiffening is an important biomechanical event in PH and also predicts survival based on the PA relative area change (RAC) measured at rest ...
