Short-Term Prognostic Value of Strain Echocardiography in Patients with STEMI
Objectives: Left ventricular (LV) systolic function is major predictor of outcome after acute myocardial infarction (AMI). In recent years, speckle-tracking echocardiography (STE) derived strain measurement has been demonstrated to directly reflect ...

Anatomical variants and coronary anomalies detected by dual-source coronary computed tomography angiography in North-eastern Thailand [PDF]
Purpose: Congenital coronary anomalies are uncommon, with an incidence ranging from 0.17% in autopsy cases to 1.2% in angiographically evaluated cases. The recent development of dual-source coronary computed tomography angiography (coronary CTA) allows ...

Panoramic Coronary Angiography
We describe a new imaging technique for coronary angiography.The conventional approach to coronary angiography exploits static perspective imaging over multiple cardiac cycles, using a limited number of empirically selected views. This approach entails both lack and redundancy of information and may result in suboptimal visualization of the individual ...
