Clinical Anatomy of the Left and Right Atrial Appendages in Humans: Comparative and Developmental Perspective

open access: yesClinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Human atrial chambers derive from distinct embryonic anlagens, the original embryonic atria gradually transforming into the so‐called auricles, or atrial appendages. This study quantifies macroscopic variations in pectinate muscle architecture in human atrial appendages and evaluates their visualization using clinical imaging modalities.

Diagnostic Accuracy and Feasibility of Quantitative Flow Ratio at Low Frame Rate Angiography: The Prospective Multicentre Australian AVALON Study

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Quantitative Flow Ratio (QFR) is a well‐established, non‐hyperemic, angiographic, wire‐free predictor of ischemia when compared to Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR). However, its diagnostic accuracy at low frame rates (< 10 frames/second), commonly used in contemporary practice to minimize radiation exposure, has not been evaluated ...

Myocardial bridging: depiction rate and morphology at CT coronary angiography - comparison with conventional coronary angiography

open access: yes, 2008
PURPOSE: To prospectively assess the depiction rate and morphologic features of myocardial bridging (MB) of coronary arteries with 64-section computed tomographic (CT) coronary angiography in comparison to conventional coronary angiography. MATERIALS AND

Temporal Trends and Prognosis in Rotational Atherectomy: A Comparison of Contemporary and Traditional Eras

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Rotational atherectomy (RA) has undergone considerable technical modernization in recent years. This study evaluated whether RA performed in the contemporary era was associated with superior cardiovascular outcomes compared with the traditional era. Aims To compare the clinical characteristics and cardiovascular outcomes of patients

Computed Tomography of the Coronary Arteries

open access: yesSA Heart Journal, 2017
MSCT Coronary Angiography is a fast developing non-invasive diagnostic technique that can detect a coronary stenosis. The detection of a coronary stenosis is hampered by limited image quality and by motion artefacts and extensive calcifications ...

Three dimensional rotational angiography imaging of double aortic arch vascular ring [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Three dimensional (3D) rotational angiography is a technique used increasingly for imaging in congenital heart disease. Here the use of this technique for imaging of double aortic arch vascular ring is described and the advantages of this modality. are

Clinical Impact of Adherence to Fractional Flow Reserve Guidance in Acute Coronary Syndrome

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Fractional flow reserve (FFR) is established to guide revascularization in stable coronary disease and non‐culprit lesions in acute coronary syndromes (ACS). However, real‐world adherence to FFR guidance across the spectrum of ACS presentations, including ambiguous culprit scenarios, remains incompletely characterized.

Comentário a «Será que a diferença na opacificação coronária corrigida medida por TC é preditora do fluxo coronário?»

open access: yesRevista Portuguesa de Cardiologia, 2011
Objectives: A proof-of-concept study was undertaken to determine whether differences in corrected coronary opacification (CCO) within coronary lumen can identify arteries with abnormal resting coronary flow.

Maximum Allowable Contrast Dose and Risk of Acute Kidney Injury After Coronary Procedures

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Recent studies have questioned whether iodinated contrast is causally related to acute kidney injury (AKI). AIM We pursed a contemporary analysis to determine the impact of contrast dose on AKI following coronary procedures in an era of lower contrast doses and less nephrotoxic agents.
