Wall motion assessment by feature tracking in pediatric patients with coronary anomalies undergoing dobutamine stress CMR [PDF]
BackgroundLeft ventricular (LV) wall motion assessment is an important adjunct in addition to perfusion defects in assessing ischemic changes. This study aims to investigate the feasibility and utility of performing feature tracking (FT) in pediatric ...

Coronary artery anomalies are some of the most confusing, neglected topics in cardiology. Although the medical community and general public are increasingly aware that coronary anomalies can be fatal (typically in young, previously “healthy” athletes),1 the reasons for the sudden fatal event and the frequency with which it occurs are generally unclear.

Coronary Artery Anomalies in Animals [PDF]
Coronary artery anomalies represent a disease spectrum from incidental to life-threatening. Anomalies of coronary artery origin and course are well-recognized in human medicine, but have received limited attention in veterinary medicine.

Coronary anomalies: Incidence and importance† [PDF]
AbstractMost patients with coronary anomalies are asymptomatic. The knowledge of those variations could be important in regard to invasive catheter treatment or bypass surgery. In a retrospective study, the angiographic findings based on 4, 016 patients (1985‐1989) were analyzed concerning coronary anomalies and malformations.

A rare combination of coronary anomalies [PDF]
Coronary anomalies are found in less than 1% of diagnostic coronary angiograms. The clinical relevance of these anomalies varies from insignificant to potentially lethal. The major role of coronary angiography in interventional cardiology and coronary surgery underscores the importance of having knowledge of the variations in coronary anatomy and their

Coronary venous anatomy and anomalies
Coronary venous anatomy can be divided into the greater cardiac venous system and the lesser cardiac venous system. With protocol optimization, including appropriate contrast bolus timing, coronary veins can be depicted with excellent detail on CT.

Prevalence and CT angiographic evaluation of coronary artery anomalies in 20,243 consecutive patients: a retrospective study [PDF]
Background Coronary artery anomalies (CAAs) are rare congenital abnormalities involving the origin, course, or structure of coronary arteries. While often incidental, some variants have clinical and procedural implications.

Coronary Artery Anomalies [PDF]
Coronary artery anomalies (CAAs) are a group of congenital conditions characterized by abnormal origin or course of any of the 3 main epicardial coronary arteries. Although CAAs have been identified as a common underlying condition in young athletes with sudden cardiac death, the widespread use of invasive and noninvasive coronary imaging has led to ...

Prevalence and imaging spectrum of coronary artery anomalies by coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) among patients with failed coronary artery catheterization; A single center cross-sectional study in Egyptian population [PDF]
Background: Anatomic variations and abnormalities of coronary arteries could affect the blood supply of the heart, hemodynamic characteristics and could be a risk of atherosclerosis. Knowledge about the variations of coronary artery origin and its course
