Papillary Muscle Rupture Complicating a Papillary Muscle Abscess
Korean Circulation Journal, 2006 Spontaneous rupture of a papillary muscle from a papillary abscess is extremely rare. Most cases of papillary muscle ruptures are due to myocardial infarction or trauma. We describe the clinical course of a 68-year-old man who died from a papillary muscle rupture as a complication of a papillary muscle abscess due to Streptococcal pyogenes septicemia. (

Potential for Dose Reduction in CT-Derived Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction: A Simulation Study
Tomography, 2023 Background: Measuring left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) is important for detecting heart failure, e.g., in treatment with potentially cardiotoxic chemotherapy. MRI is considered the reference standard for LVEF, but availability may be limited and
