Extraction of epi-cardium contours from unseen images using a shape database [PDF]
Accurate segmentation of the myocardium in cardiac magnetic resonance images can be restricted by image noise and low discrimination between the epi-cardium boundary and other organs.

Cine Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Myocardial Ischemia and Reperfusion in Mice [PDF]
Studies of acute myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury in genetically manipulated mice have been impeded by the technical challenges of instrumenting small animals ( 500 bpm). To address these problems, 4 C57BL/6 mice (28 to 30 g) were anesthetized with pentobarbital and intubated for surgical instrumentation of the major left coronary artery with ...

We investigated the effectiveness of soluble Receptor for Advanced Glycation Endproducts (sRAGE) in attenuating angiotensin II (AngII)-induced left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) using in vivo 9.4T cine-magnetic resonance imaging (CINE-MRI).

Alterations in vascular function in primary aldosteronism - a cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging study [PDF]
Introduction: Excess aldosterone is associated with increased cardiovascular risk. Aldosterone has a permissive effect on vascular fibrosis. Cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) allows study of vascular function by measuring aortic ...

Prediction of sarcomere mutations in subclinical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Sarcomere protein mutations in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy induce subtle cardiac structural changes before the development of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH).

Introduction Leiomyosarcoma of the inferior vena cava is associated with poor prognosis. Complete resection is the only curative treatment. We present a patient with this disease in whom cine magnetic resonance imaging was valuable in selecting the ...

Cardiac magnetic resonance findings predict increased resource utilization in elective coronary artery bypass grafting [PDF]
Morbidity following CABG (coronary artery bypass grafting) is difficult to predict and leads to increased healthcare costs. We hypothesized that pre-operative CMR (cardiac magnetic resonance) findings would predict resource utilization in elective CABG ...
