Association of Long Noncoding RNA Expression Signatures with Stress-Induced Myocardial Perfusion Defects

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2023
Stress-induced myocardial perfusion defects found in dipyridamole–thallium-201 single-photon emission computed tomography imaging may indicate vascular perfusion abnormalities and risk of obstructive or nonobstructive coronary heart disease.

Diagnostic accuracy of functional imaging modalities for chondrosarcoma: A systematic review and meta-analysis

open access: yesJournal of Bone Oncology, 2019
Introduction: The distinction between low-grade (grade 1) chondrosarcoma and its benign counterparts can be challenging. This systematic review aims to quantify the diagnostic accuracies of all functional imaging modalities used in the diagnosis of ...

Diagnostic accuracy of myocardial perfusion imaging with czt technology. Systemic review and meta-analysis of comparison with invasive coronary angiography [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
OBJECTIVES: This study sought to summarize the evidence on stress myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) using cadmium-zinc-telluride (CZT) technology for the diagnosis of obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD). The CZT cameras are newly introduced, and

Noninvasive evaluation of ischaemic heart disease: myocardial perfusion imaging or stress echocardiography? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Stress echocardiography and myocardial perfusion imaging are commonly used noninvasive imaging modalities for the evaluation of ischaemic heart disease. Both modalities have proved clinically useful in the entire spectrum of coronary artery disease. Both

Prognostic value of olfactory nerve damage measured with thallium-based olfactory imaging in patients with idiopathic olfactory dysfunction

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Idiopathic olfactory disorder is resistant to treatment, and the recovery time is long. This study investigated the prognostic value of the migration of nasally administered thallium-201 to the olfactory bulb (thallium migration to the OB), a measure of ...

Enhanced Diagnosis of Coronary Artery Disease in Women by Dobutamine Thallium-201 ST-Segment/Heart Rate Slope and Thallium-201 Myocardial SPECT

open access: yesJournal of the Formosan Medical Association, 2007
The diagnosis of coronary artery disease (CAD) in women presents a great challenge because of poor exercise capacity and inadequate heart rate response during stress test.
