Three-dimensional echocardiography and 2D-3D speckle tracking imaging in chronic pulmonary hypertension. diagnostic accuracy in detecting hemodynamic signs of RV failure [PDF]
Background and objective. Our aim was to compare three-dimensional (3D) and 2D and 3D speckle tracking (2D-STE, 3D-STE) echocardiographic parameters with conventional right ventricular (RV) indexes in patients with chronic pulmonary hypertension (PH ...

Assessment of mitral valve regurgitation by cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging
Mitral regurgitation (MR) is a common valvular heart disease and is the second most frequent indication for heart valve surgery in Western countries. Echocardiography is the recommended first-line test for the assessment of valvular heart disease, but ...

Association of PET-measured myocardial flow reserve with echocardiography-estimated pulmonary artery systolic pressure in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy [PDF]
BackgroundPulmonary hypertension (PH) is a known complication of HCM and is a strong predictor of mortality. We aim to investigate the relationship between microvascular dysfunction measured by quantitative PET and PH in HCM patients.MethodsEighty-nine ...

A novel inhaled anesthesia technique for concurrent direct laryngoscopy in rats
Our novel nose cone anesthetic technique allows the use of gas anesthesia during concurrent direct laryngoscopy. Inhaled anesthesia not only has a better safety profile for rats, but also increases lab efficiency when compared to injectable anesthesia. Abstract The current anesthetic standard for laryngoscopy in rats utilizes injectable intraperitoneal
