Imaging of the pulmonary vasculature in congenital heart disease without gadolinium contrast: Intraindividual comparison of a novel Compressed SENSE accelerated 3D modified REACT with 4D contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance angiography

Journal of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance, 2020
Background Patients with Congenital heart disease (CHD) require repetitive imaging of the pulmonary vasculature throughout their life. In this study, we compared a novel Compressed SENSE accelerated (factor 9) electrocardiogram (ECG)- and respiratory ...

Pulmonary Vein Activity Organization to Determine Atrial Fibrillation Recurrence: Preliminary Data from a Pilot Study

Mathematics, 2020
Ablation of pulmonary veins has emerged as a key procedure for normal rhythm restoration in atrial fibrillation patients. However, up to half of ablated Atrial fibrillation (AF) patients suffer recurrences during the first year.

Computed tomography features of supracardiac total anomalous pulmonary venous connection in an infant

Radiology Case Reports, 2016
Total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC) is a rare congenital anomaly of the pulmonary veins drainage. In this entity, the pulmonary veins, instead of draining to left atrium, connect abnormally to the systemic venous circulation.

Bigeminal Pulmonary Vein Ectopy Suppressed by Pulmonary Vein Isolation

International Heart Journal, 2008
A 58-year-old man with atrial fibrillation underwent pulmonary vein (PV) isolation (PVI). Bigeminal atrial premature beats persisted from the beginning of the PVI. The cardiac recordings from a basket catheter (BC) revealed the PV ectopic origin in the distal right superior PV.

Reoperations after the correction of partial abnormal venous return: a clinical case series

Alʹmanah Kliničeskoj Mediciny, 2020
Rationale: The surgical procedure for partial abnormal pulmonary venous return (PAPV) implies the formation of a tunnel between the orifices of the right pulmonary veins and the left atrial cavity with the interatrial septum repair.

Catheter Ablation of Atrial Fibrillation with Short Duration Radiofrequency Current using Non-Irrigated Catheters

Український журнал серцево-судинної хірургії, 2023
Introduction. The use of high-power radiofrequency current is considered to be a promising alternative to the currently used technique of catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation (AF) with radiofrequency current of normal power.
