Tachycardia during Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography [PDF]

open access: yesPacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, 2011
A 76-year-old woman underwent a coronary artery computed tomography angiography (CTA) to exclude coronary occlusive disease after a segmental inferoseptal hypokinesia was discovered at echocardiography in the workup for atypical chest pain. The patient has a body mass index of 40 kg/m2, a history of arterial hypertension, hyperlipidemia, hypothyroidism,

Factors associated with cardiovascular events after simultaneous liver–kidney transplant from the US Multicenter Simultaneous Liver–Kidney Transplant Consortium

open access: yesHepatology Communications, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract Cardiovascular disease is a leading complication after both liver and kidney transplantation. Factors associated with and rates of cardiovascular events (CVEs) after simultaneous liver–kidney transplant (SLKT) are unknown. This was a retrospective cohort study of adult SLKT recipients between 2002 and 2017 at six centers in six United Network ...

External Validation of Atherosclerotic Neuroimaging Biomarkers in Emergent Large‐Vessel Occlusion

open access: yesStroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology, 2023
Background Intracranial atherosclerosis related large vessel occlusion (ICAS‐LVO) is the major cause of failed mechanical thrombectomy. ICAS‐LVO causes reocclusion or a fixed focal stenosis, leading to suboptimal revascularization and poor functional ...

Computed Tomography Coronary Angiography

open access: yesJournal of the American College of Cardiology, 2006
Recent developments in computed tomography technology have made imaging of the coronary arteries possible. All the same, the rapid motion and small dimensions of the coronary vessels make coronary computed tomography angiography (coronary CTA) challenging.
