Ultrasonic characterization of the pulmonary venous wall: echographic and histological correlation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Background: Pulmonary vein isolation with radiofrequency catheter ablation techniques is used to prevent recurrences of human atrial fibrillation. Visualization of the architecture at the venoatrial junction could be crucial for these ablative techniques.

Prognostic significance of Troponin I in patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention

open access: yesIndian Heart Journal, 2021
This observational study investigates the prognostic significance of troponin I in patients undergoing primary percutaneous intervention (pPCI). Sequential cardiac biomarker sampling of the enrolled patients (n = 167) was performed on admission and at 6 ...

Interventional MRA and intravascular imaging [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, 2000
Several attributes make magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) attractive for guidance of intravascular therapeutic procedures, including high soft tissue contrast, imaging in arbitrary oblique planes, lack of ionizing radiation, and the ability to provide functional information, such as flow velocity or flow volume per unit time, in conjunction with ...

Automation Process for Morphometric Analysis of Volumetric CT Data from Pulmonary Vasculature in Rats [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
With advances in medical imaging scanners, it has become commonplace to generate large multidimensional datasets. These datasets require tools for a rapid, thorough analysis. To address this need, we have developed an automated algorithm for morphometric
