Effect of propranolol on regional myocardial function in anesthetized open-chest dogs with myocardial ischemia [PDF]
Effects of propranolol on ischemic segmental function were studied in anesthetized open-chest dogs. Two segment-length gauges were used for measuring the regional myocardial function: one was sutured on to the left ventricular surface perfused by the ...

Myocardial contrast echocardiography – Use in viability assessment and acute myocardial infarction
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 ...

Iron Deposition following Chronic Myocardial Infarction as a Substrate for Cardiac Electrical Anomalies: Initial Findings in a Canine Model [PDF]
Purpose: Iron deposition has been shown to occur following myocardial infarction (MI). We investigated whether such focal iron deposition within chronic MI lead to electrical anomalies. Methods: Two groups of dogs (ex-vivo (n = 12) and in-vivo (n = 10))

Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Myocardial Fibrosis Related to Ischemic Events
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 Perfusion and Viability [PDF]
Both firstâ pass perfusion studies and imaging of delayed hyperenhancement can be combined in one patient exam. The MRI protocols for myocardial perfusion and viability assessment are presented together in this unit due to the complimentary information ...

PET vs MRI for Myocardial Viability
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 .

Myocardial Scar Imaging: Viability Beyond REVIVED [PDF]
Purpose of Review: It was previously believed that the presence of myocardial viability in patients with significant coronary artery disease improved outcomes following revascularisation, but the landmark STITCH trial found no significant correlation ...
