The Development and Challenges of PET/MRI Dual‐Modality Imaging Probes—An Update
ABSTRACT The integration of Positron emission tomography (PET) with Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) combines the functional imaging capabilities of PET with the high‐resolution anatomical detail of MRI, creating a synergistic platform for advanced diagnostic imaging and image‐guided therapies. Central to the success of this dual‐modality system is the

ABSTRACT Background Cervical internal carotid artery stenosis (ICS) is a recognized risk factor for ischemic stroke, yet morphological severity alone may not fully reflect hemodynamic alterations. Turbulent kinetic energy (TKE), derived from multi‐velocity‐encoding (multi‐VENC) four‐dimensional (4D) flow MRI, may provide a robust marker for ICS ...

Myeloperoxidase and Plaque Vulnerability [PDF]
Sudden cardiac death remains the leading cause of mortality in industrialized societies, outpacing all cancer related deaths combined. The majority of sudden cardiac deaths arise from acute myocardial infarction secondary to intracoronary artery thromboses. Remarkably, the culprit lesions involved are typically not flow-limiting stenoses,1,2 but rather

ABSTRACT Rotator cuff disorders are common in the aging population, often leading to pain, disability, and reduced quality of life. Age‐associated changes can occur disproportionately in regions of high mechanical stress, such as the insertion site of the supraspinatus tendon, leading to increased injury rates and tendinopathies.
