ABSTRACT Background In selected patient populations, percutaneous closure of patent foramen ovale has been shown to be beneficial in preventing cerebral ischaemic events. In most cases, this procedure requires echocardiographic guidance, which may be transesophageal, transthoracic or intracardiac.

ABSTRACT Background Intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) is increasingly used to treat coronary artery calcification (CAC). This study aimed to identify clinical and procedural factors associated with IVL treatment success. Methods This retrospective analysis included 454 patients (73 ± 9 years, 75% male) treated with IVL from the multicenter BENELUX‐IVL ...

Abstract A largely unexplored part of the financial incentive for physicians to participate in preventive care is the degree to which they are the residual claimant from any resulting cost savings. We examine the impact of two preventive activities for people with serious mental illness (care plans and annual reviews of physical health) by English ...

Multi-Source and Multi-Sequence Myocardial Pathology Segmentation Using a Cascading Refinement CNN [PDF]
Myocardial infarction (MI) is one of the most prevalent cardiovascular diseases and consequently, a major cause for mortality and morbidity worldwide. Accurate assessment of myocardial tissue viability for post-MI patients is critical for diagnosis and treatment planning, e.g.

ABSTRACT Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for chronic total occlusion (CTO) is an extremely challenging procedure, with intramyocardial hematoma (IMH) being one of its rare yet severe complications. In this report, we detail two cases of IMH occurring during PCI for CTO, emphasizing the importance of avoiding catheter pressure entrapment and ...
