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 ...

Mechanical Thrombus Aspiration for a Young STEMI Patient With Plaque Erosion: Time for a Stent‐Free Approach?

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A 34‐year‐old man with no cardiovascular history presented with anterior ST‐elevation myocardial infarction and a large thrombotic occlusion of the mid left anterior descending artery. Following potent antithrombotic therapy and mechanical thrombus aspiration, angiography revealed vessel patency without residual significant stenosis, allowing ...

Consecutive Emergency Carotid Artery Stenting and Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement in a Patient With Cardiogenic Shock: A Case Report

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Severe aortic stenosis (AS) carries a poor prognosis when symptomatic, particularly in cardiogenic shock (CS). Emergency transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is rarely performed but may represent a rescue therapy. Coexistent carotid artery stenosis (CAS) further increases procedural risk.

Optimising coronary imaging decisions with machine learning: an external validation study

Open Heart
Background Exclusion of coronary stenosis in individuals with suggestive symptoms is challenging. Cardiac CT or coronary angiography is often used but is inefficient and costly and involves risks.

The High‐Sensitivity C‐Reactive Protein−Albumin−Lymphocyte Index Is a Prognostic Marker for All‐Cause and Cardiovascular Mortality in Patients With ST‐Elevation Myocardial Infarction

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Inflammation and immune dysfunction may worsen the prognosis of patients with ST‐segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Aims This study aimed to assess whether the high‐sensitivity C‐reactive protein–albumin–lymphocyte index (hsCALLYI) could be used to predict the prognosis of STEMI patients who received emergency ...

Development of a deep learning algorithm for detecting significant coronary artery stenosis in whole-heart coronary magnetic resonance angiography

Journal of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance
Background: Whole-heart coronary magnetic resonance angiography (CMRA) enables noninvasive and accurate detection of coronary artery stenosis. Nevertheless, the visual interpretation of CMRA is constrained by the observer's experience, necessitating ...

The Value of CT-FFR in Predicting Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events in Patients with Obstructive Coronary Artery Disease [PDF]

Zhongguo quanke yixue
Background At present, FFR is the ＂gold standard＂ index for evaluating the function and physiology of coronary blood flow. CT-fractional flow reserve (CT-FFR) reflects the hemodynamic changes of coronary artery lesions, it has higher diagnostic and ...
