ABSTRACT Background Papillary muscle infarction (PMI) has been linked to significantly increased mortality and is associated with ventricular arrhythmias and mitral regurgitation. Reference bright‐blood late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) imaging provides poor scar‐to‐blood contrast, making PMI visualization challenging. Black‐blood LGE imaging overcomes

The Development and Challenges of PET/MRI Dual‐Modality Imaging Probes—An Update
ABSTRACT The integration of Positron emission tomography (PET) with Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) combines the functional imaging capabilities of PET with the high‐resolution anatomical detail of MRI, creating a synergistic platform for advanced diagnostic imaging and image‐guided therapies. Central to the success of this dual‐modality system is the

Abstract Background Ischaemic heart disease is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in haemodialysis patients, yet conventional therapies are often precluded due to increased perioperative risk and medication contraindications. Perhexiline, an antianginal agent, is contraindicated in renal impairment.
