Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Myocardial Fibrosis Related to Ischemic Events
Journal of Interdisciplinary Medicine, 2017 Given the higher amount of detail it offers, the use of magnetic resonance (MR) in the field of cardiology has increased, thus leading to a decrease in the use of invasive and irradiating methods for diagnosing various cardiovascular disorders.

Myocardial contrast echocardiography – Use in viability assessment and acute myocardial infarction
Journal of the Indian Academy of Echocardiography & Cardiovascular Imaging, 2019 Myocardial contrast echocardiography (MCE) is now guideline-directed tool to assess myocardial perfusion both at rest and during stress. Its prognostic value has been established in the scenario of stable and unstable coronary artery disease and heart ...

Effects of Polyphenols on Oxidative Stress-Mediated Injury in Cardiomyocytes [PDF]
, 2017 Cardiovascular diseases are the main cause of mortality and morbidity in the world. Hypertension, ischemia/reperfusion, diabetes and anti-cancer drugs contribute to heart failure through oxidative and nitrosative stresses which cause cardiomyocytes ...

PET vs MRI for Myocardial Viability
Indian Journal of Clinical Cardiology, 2020 Myocardial viability is an important concept that though conceptualy inituitive however has eluded any positive benefit in a randomised trial situation . The two techniques that are cutting edge and also the most accurate are the PET and CMR .

Dexmedetomidine post-treatment attenuates cardiac ischaemia/reperfusion injury by inhibiting apoptosis through HIF-1α signalling. [PDF]
, 2020 Hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF-1α) plays a critical role in the apoptotic process during cardiac ischaemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. This study aimed to investigate whether post-treatment with dexmedetomidine (DEX) could protect against I/R-induced ...

Magnetic resonance imaging of myocardial strain after acute ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction: a systematic review [PDF]
, 2017 The purpose of this systematic review is to provide a clinically relevant, disease-based perspective on myocardial strain imaging in patients with acute myocardial infarction or stable ischemic heart disease.

Hybrid Imaging in the Assessment of Myocardial Ischemia and Viability
Journal of Interdisciplinary Medicine, 2016 Myocardial ischemia results from a reduction in blood flow as a consequence of a coronary stenosis, which produces ischemia in the myocardial territories irrigated by the stenotic artery.
