Full free-breathing cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging: enhancing efficiency and image quality in clinical practice [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance
: Background: Conventional cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) examinations require patients to repeatedly hold their breath, which can reduce examination efficiency and pose challenges for patients unable to do so.

Cardiovascular Interventional Magnetic Resonance Imaging [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation, 2005
Interventional cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (iCMR) refers to catheter-based therapeutic procedures using MRI rather than conventional radiographic guidance. iCMR promises to further blur the distinction between medical and surgical therapeutics by permitting surgical-quality “exposure” in minimally invasive procedures.

Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance Imaging [PDF]

open access: yesJACC: Cardiovascular Imaging, 2009
Cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), or simply cardiac MR, is considered the “gold” standard for noninvasively characterizing cardiac function and viability, having 3D capabilities and a high spatial and temporal resolution. This imaging modality has proven to be an invaluable tool in diagnosing complex cardiomyopathies.

Interventional Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance Imaging [PDF]

open access: yesTrends in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2007
Magnetic resonance imaging provides structural and functional cardiovascular information with excellent soft tissue contrast. Real-time magnetic resonance imaging can guide transcatheter cardiovascular interventions in large animal models and may prove superior to x-ray and adjunct modalities for peripheral vascular, structural heart, and cardiac ...

Myocardial iron overload by cardiovascular magnetic resonance native segmental T1 mapping: a sensitive approach that correlates with cardiac complications

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance, 2021
Background We compared cardiovascular magnetic resonance segmental native T1 against T2* values for the detection of myocardial iron overload (MIO) in thalassaemia major and we evaluated the clinical correlates of native T1 measurements.

Left atrial dysfunction may precede left atrial enlargement and abnormal left ventricular longitudinal function: a cardiac MR feature tracking study

open access: yesBMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2022
Background The role of the dysfunction of left atrium in the occurrence and development of cardiovascular disease has been gradually recognized. We aim to compare the impact on left atrial (LA) function between patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy ...

Detection of myocardial fibrosis: Where we stand

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
Myocardial fibrosis, resulting from the disturbance of extracellular matrix homeostasis in response to different insults, is a common and important pathological remodeling process that is associated with adverse clinical outcomes, including arrhythmia ...
