Imaging Techniques for the Assessment of Myocardial Perfusion

Journal of Interdisciplinary Medicine, 2016
One of the most significant causes of heart failure is coronary heart disease and subsequent left ventricular dysfunction. The prognosis and perioperative mortality are influenced by left ventricular function, which is also an important predictor marker ...

Preparation and Preliminary Imaging Evaluation of a Group of Novel Rapid 99mTc-Labeled Boric Acid Derivatives Tracers for Myocardial Perfusion Imaging

Journal of Isotopes, 2022
Nuclear cardiology plays an important role in management of cardiac patients with known or suspected coronary artery disease (CAD). CAD is the leading cause of premature death and permanent disability. Myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) with radiotracers

Myocardial perfusion imaging with PET [PDF]

Imaging in Medicine, 2013
PET-myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) allows accurate measurement of myocardial perfusion, absolute myocardial blood flow and function at stress and rest in a single study session performed in approximately 30 min. Various PET tracers are available for MPI, and rubidium-82 or nitrogen-13-ammonia is most commonly used.

Dynamic CT myocardial perfusion imaging [PDF]

European Journal of Radiology, 2016
Non-invasive cardiac imaging has rapidly evolved during the last decade due to advancements in CT based technologies. Coronary CT angiography has been shown to reliably assess coronary anatomy and detect high risk coronary artery disease. However, this technique is limited to anatomical assessment, thus non-invasive techniques for functional assessment

Diagnostic Ultrasound Induced Inertial Cavitation To Non-Invasively Restore Coronary And Microvascular Flow In Acute Myocardial Infarction [PDF]

, 2013
Ultrasound induced cavitation has been explored as a method of dissolving intravascular and microvascular thrombi in acute myocardial infarction. The purpose of this study was to determine the type of cavitation required for success, and whether longer ...
