Troponin release following endurance exercise: is inflammation the cause? a cardiovascular magnetic resonance study [PDF]
Background: The aetiology and clinical significance of troponin release following endurance exercise is unclear but may be due to transient myocardial inflammation.

Quantification of Esophageal Tumor Motion on Cine-Magnetic Resonance Imaging [PDF]
To quantify the movement of esophageal tumors noninvasively on cine-magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) by use of a semiautomatic method to visualize tumor movement directly throughout multiple breathing cycles.Thirty-six patients with esophageal tumors underwent MRI. Tumors were located in the upper (8), middle (7), and lower (21) esophagus.

Standardized MRI-Based Quantification of Epicardial Adipose Tissue Volume: Reproducibility and Agreement With Cardiac Computed Tomography. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Epicardial adipose tissue volume (EATV) is increasingly recognized as a cardiometabolic risk marker associated with adverse outcomes. The most established approach for EATV quantification is cardiac computed tomography (CT). MRI offers a radiation‐free alternative allowing simultaneous assessment of myocardial function and tissue ...

Myocardial Perfusion Defects in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy Mutation Carriers
Background Impaired myocardial blood flow (MBF) in the absence of epicardial coronary disease is a feature of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Although most evident in hypertrophied or scarred segments, reduced MBF can occur in apparently normal segments.

Cardiovascular magnetic resonance at 3.0T: Current state of the art
There are advantages to conducting cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) studies at a field strength of 3.0 Telsa, including the increase in bulk magnetization, the increase in frequency separation of off-resonance spins, and the increase in T1 of many

Low-field cine magnetic resonance imaging
The spin warp technique (Edelstein et al, 1980) is now the most commonly used method of image formation for nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) studies. This technique combines frequency and phase encoding of positional information onto the signal to allow subsequent image reconstruction.

Tile-net for undersampled cardiovascular CINE magnetic resonance imaging
We propose the "Tile-net" method based on dividing an image into smaller tiles. Using the tile as the input to the neural network, the network is simplified substantially. The Tile-net learns at a much faster rate than the networks without tiling. The training and reconstruction times for the Tile-net are reduced by 40% and 33%, respectively compared ...
