Prominent Chiari Network as a Cause of Cyanosis in Infants: A Case Report and Implications for Pediatric Cardiology Practice

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
A prominent Chiari network can cause cyanosis in infants by inducing a positional right‐to‐left atrial shunt. Accurate diagnosis enabled conservative management, delaying surgery until optimal conditions. This case emphasizes the importance of echocardiographic evaluation in differentiating cyanosis mechanisms to guide appropriate treatment in ...

Diagnostic Performance of Standardized First Trimester Fetal Echocardiography for the Detection of Congenital Heart Defects

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
First trimester fetal echocardiography has high detection rates for early diagnosis of severe congenital heart defects. Standardized first trimester fetal echocardiography may allow early diagnosis of fetuses with congenital heart defects and contribute to the appropriate management of these pregnancies.

Ultrasound‐Based Z Score and Pulmonary Valve/Aortic Valve Diameter Ratio Improving the Predictive Value of Fetal Aortic Stenosis

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
A total of 24 singleton fetuses with suspected AS who underwent two or more fetal echocardiograms were enrolled in this study. Using electronic spatiotemporal image correlation (eSTIC) technology, the AV and PV Z scores, along with the PV/AV ratio, were measured and compared between two echocardiographic examinations to assess diagnostic efficacy ...

Assessing the Utility of Targeted Neonatal Echocardiography for Congenital Heart Disease Detection: Retrospective Cohort Analysis

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
Targeted neonatal echocardiography showed good agreement with cardiology‐performed studies in detecting significant congenital heart disease. Most missed lesions were minor, highlighting both the value of TNE in neonatal care and the need for continued training to optimize diagnostic accuracy.

Magnetic Resonance Imaging in the Clinical Evaluation of Lung Disorders: Current Status and Future Prospects

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The low proton density and high signal decay rate of pulmonary tissue have previously hampered the application of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the clinical evaluation of lung disorders. With the continuing technical advances in scanners, coils, pulse sequences, and image postprocessing, pulmonary MRI can provide structural and ...

MRI Assessment of Energy Loss Within the Thoracic Aorta and Its Impact on Cardiac Function in Fontan Patients After Aortic Reconstruction

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background In Fontan patients undergoing aortic reconstruction, concerns regarding the impact of aortic function on ventricular function exist. Purpose 4D Flow MRI was used to compare energy loss (EL) within the thoracic aorta in patients with and without aortic reconstruction. Study Type Retrospective case control.

Fetal Proximal and Distal Transverse Aortic Arch and Aortic Isthmus Measurements Between 19 and 34 Weeks of Gestation

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
Objectives To assess fetal proximal and distal transverse aortic arch and aortic isthmus (AI) diameters between 19 and 34 weeks of gestation. Methods A prospective cross‐sectional descriptive study was performed in 466 low‐risk pregnancies between 19 and 34 weeks of gestation. Proximal transverse aortic arch (PTAA), distal transverse aortic arch (DTAA),

Exercise Capacity and Pulmonary Function in Pediatric Patients With Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Connection Post‐Surgical Repair: A Retrospective Analysis

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Anomalous pulmonary venous connection (APVC), including total (TAPVC) and partial (PAPVC) forms, is a congenital heart defect with abnormal pulmonary vein drainage; and while surgical repair has improved survival, its long‐term impact on cardiopulmonary function remains unclear.
