Myocardial Viability

open access: yes, 2010
[...] Various noninvasive imaging techniques have been used to evaluate myocardial viability in patients with ischemic LV dysfunction considered for coronary revascularization, including nuclear imaging, stress echocardiography, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The most frequently used modality is nuclear imaging with positron emission tomography (

MRI evaluation of myocardial viability

open access: yesLa radiologia medica, 2006
Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has become an accurate noninvasive imaging procedure for the study of postischaemic residual cardiac function, thanks to the evolution of MRI machines, postprocessing software and, above all, sequences. After infarction, and in chronic myocardial ischaemia, the degree of contractile dysfunction is one of the ...

Myocardial Viability and Revascularization

Heart Failure Clinics, 2009
Cardiovascular MRI can assess multiple markers of myocardial viability in a single examination. Its accuracy is at least equivalent to, if not superior to, that of other currently available noninvasive imaging techniques, including positron emission tomography.

Assessment of myocardial viability

Seminars in Nuclear Medicine, 2005
The prevalence of left ventricular (LV) dysfunction and resultant congestive heart failure is increasing. Patients with this condition are at high risk for cardiac death and usually have significant limitations in their lifestyles. Although there have been advances in medical therapy resulting in improved survival and well being, the best and most ...

Myocardial viability

Current Opinion in Cardiology, 2019
This review highlights the different imaging modalities available to assess myocardial viability in patients with heart failure and coronary artery disease (CAD) being considered for revascularization.Myocardial viability can be determined by a variety of cardiac imaging modalities.

Myocardial viability

The International Journal of Cardiac Imaging, 1995
The contribution of PET viability studies to the understanding of recoverable ischemic left ventricular dysfunction cannot be overemphasized. However, it is uncertain whether FDG used with PET will continue to play a pivotal role in the clinical evaluation of all patients with poor function.

Multimodality Imaging of Myocardial Viability

Current Cardiology Reports, 2021
Myocardial viability is an important pathophysiologic concept which may have significant clinical impact in patients with left ventricular dysfunction due to ischemic heart disease. Understanding the imaging modalities used to assess viability, and the clinical implication of their findings, is critical for clinical decision-making in this population ...

Assessment of myocardial viability

Current Opinion in Cardiology, 1997
The noninvasive assessment of myocardial viability has proved clinically useful for distinguishing hibernating myocardium from irreversibly injured myocardium in patients with chronic ischemic heart disease or recent myocardial infarction who exhibit marked regional and global left ventricular dysfunction.

Myocardial Ischemia & Viability

2012
The increasing use of thrombolytic therapy and primary percutaneous coronary interventions in association with optimized anti-thrombotic therapy has contributed to significantly reducing short-term mortality and morbidity in patients with acute coronary syndromes. The change of the epidemiology of myocardial infarction over the past 2 decades is due to
