Multi-Planar Deep Segmentation Networks for Cardiac Substructures from MRI and CT [PDF]
arXiv, 2017 Non-invasive detection of cardiovascular disorders from radiology scans requires quantitative image analysis of the heart and its substructures. There are well-established measurements that radiologists use for diseases assessment such as ejection fraction, volume of four chambers, and myocardium mass.

Brain magnetic resonance imaging predictors in anti‐N‐methyl‐D‐aspartate receptor encephalitis
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, Volume 9, Issue 12, Page 1974-1984, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Objective Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings in anti‐N‐methyl‐D‐aspartate receptor (NMDAR) encephalitis are nonspecific and rarely have obvious associations with clinical characteristics and outcomes. This study aimed to comprehensively describe the MRI features of patients with NMDAR encephalitis, examine their associations with ...

The anterior nucleus of the thalamus plays a role in the epileptic network
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, Volume 9, Issue 12, Page 2010-2024, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Objectives We investigated both the metabolic differences and interictal/ictal discharges of the anterior nucleus of the thalamus (ANT) in patients with epilepsy to clarify the relationship between the ANT and the epileptic network. Methods Nineteen patients with drug‐resistant epilepsy who underwent stereoelectroencephalography were studied ...

Early postoperative interventional ASD-closure for severe atrial right to left shunt in a neonate with common arterial trunk [PDF]
, 2013 Although closure of an atrial septal defect (ASD II) with an occluding device in the first year of life is not a routine procedure, it is a feasible treatment, even in neonates.

Twisted atrioventricular connections in double inlet right ventricle: evaluation by magnetic resonance imaging [PDF]
, 2008 Twisted atrioventricular connections occur almost exclusively in the hearts with biventricular atrioventricular connections. Only one example of double inlet left ventricle has been illustrated in which the axes of the two atrioventricular valves crossed

Evidence that conflict regarding size of haemodynamic response to interventricular delay optimization of cardiac resynchronization therapy may arise from differences in how atrioventricular delay is kept constant. [PDF]
, 2014 Aims: Whether adjusting interventricular (VV) delay changes haemodynamic efficacy of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is controversial, with conflicting results.

Pulmonary artery interventions after Norwood procedure: Does type or position of shunt predict need for intervention? [PDF]
, 2013 ObjectivesPulmonary artery stenosis is a potential complication after Norwood palliation for hypoplastic left heart syndrome. It is unclear whether the shunt type or position in the Norwood procedure is associated with the risk of the development of ...

Where is the right ventricle? [PDF]
BMJ Case Reports, 2014 A 20-year-old man with no history of known cardiac disease was admitted with dyspnoea on exertion during a few weeks. His effort capacity was class I. At physical examination, his blood pressure was 120/70 mm Hg and pulse 80 bpm. His physical examination and ECG were unremarkable.

Up-regulation of hexokinase1 in the right ventricle of monocrotaline induced pulmonary hypertension [PDF]
, 2014 BACKGROUND: Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a proliferative arteriopathy associated with a glycolytic shift during heart metabolism. An increase in glycolytic metabolism can be detected in the right ventricle during PAH.
