Multi-modality imaging of a left atrial myxoma

SAGE Open Medical Case Reports, 2017
Objectives: Although echocardiography has traditionally been used to diagnose myxoma, invasive or non-invasive coronary angiography can be useful diagnostic tool before surgery.

Use of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Imaging Angiography to Follow-Up Arterial Remodeling in an Animal Model [PDF]

, 1998
Appropriately sized arteries in small animals may be possible models for studying the remodeling process as occurs after arterial balloon injury in humans. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is able to noninvasively image tissue in vivo.

VERMONT: Vessel Fractional Flow Reserve (vFFR) Assessment of Stenosis Severity: A Prospective Study

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Vessel fractional flow reserve (vFFR) is an angiogram‐based technique validated in early studies; however, data on its real‐time diagnostic performance and integration into routine workflow remain limited. Aims The VERMONT study evaluated the diagnostic accuracy and time efficiency of real‐time vFFR versus conventional wire‐based ...

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

Revista 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.

Inflammatory Markers Associated With Subclinical Coronary Artery Disease: The Multicenter AIDS Cohort Study. [PDF]

, 2016
BackgroundDespite evidence for higher risk of coronary artery disease among HIV+ individuals, the underlying mechanisms are not well understood. We investigated associations of inflammatory markers with subclinical coronary artery disease in 923 ...

Clinical Impact of Concordant and Discordant Physiology Parameters Post‐Percutaneous Coronary Intervention in the EASY‐PREDICT Study

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background In the EASY‐PREDICT Study, patients were randomized to angiography‐guidance or post‐percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) physiology‐guidance. Discordance between resting and hyperemic physiology post‐PCI might have a different relationship with clinical outcomes.

Computed Tomography of the Coronary Arteries

SA 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 ...

The Thigh Saphenous Vein Versus the Calf Saphenous Vein: Searching for the Optimal Conduit for Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The quality of saphenous vein (SV) grafts can vary depending on the site from which they are harvested. However, few studies have compared SV grafts harvested from the thigh with those harvested from the calf to explore which is more appropriate for use in coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). In this study, we evaluated the graft
